From his wildly successful role on ABC鈥檚 smash hit 鈥淪hark Tank鈥� to his distinguished status as a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship, John has become globally recognized for his relentless commitment to promoting and supporting entrepreneurs.

He initially made his mark as the entrepreneur and branding expert behind the groundbreaking lifestyle brand FUBU, which has eclipsed more than $6 billion in global retail sales.

From the streets of Hollis, Queens, John started a global movement from the basement of his mother鈥檚 house by capitalizing on the then-fledgling hip-hop culture. FUBU was a key development for the streetwear market, which today is a $20 billion industry.

In 2009, John was tapped by lauded television producer Mark Burnett to join the cast of a new business-reality concept, 鈥淪hark Tank鈥�. Now, after nine seasons, four Emmy Awards, multiple Critic鈥檚 Choice Awards and millions of dollars in investments, the show has become one of the most successful business reality series of all time.

Over the course of the series, John has been a mainstay of the cast of Sharks and is now affectionately referred to as 鈥淭he People鈥檚 Shark.鈥�

Resolved to share his hard-learned lessons 鈥� from major successes and failures 鈥� John has written four books and become a New York Times Best-Selling Author.

His commitment to entrepreneurship has been celebrated on a global level. In 2015, he was named a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship and was part of an exclusive group who joined President Barack Obama at the Global Entrepreneur Summit in Kenya.

In March of 2016, John accompanied the President on his historic trip to Cuba, which represented the first time a sitting U.S. president visited the island since Calvin Coolidge in 1928.

新澳门六合彩开奖记录's lecture series is named after the late Bernard Simpkins, the highly successful entrepreneur and Space Coast business leader who established the sessions.

A Simpkins endowment also started the College鈥檚 Business Entrepreneurship Program to educate the next generation of business innovators and funds up to two $1,000 scholarships awarded each semester to full-time 新澳门六合彩开奖记录 students who maintain a 3.0 GPA and submit an essay reflecting their commitment to entrepreneurship.
