Entrepreneur and "Shark Tank" star Daymond John is scheduled to appear at Weber State University on Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2026, according to a report published Oct. 14. He will speak at the Val A. Browning Center’s Austad Auditorium from 10-11:15 a.m.
John will share his "5 SHARK Points for Success," which are lessons drawn from his experience building the apparel brand FUBU and becoming a recognizable business investor. His investment portfolio includes companies such as Bombas, Sun Staches, and several businesses founded by Utahns, according to a press release from WSU.
The appearance serves as the keynote address for the Goddard School’s Vernon M. and MaRee Buehler Lecture Series. This series was established to provide the northern Utah community with direct access to prominent leaders and innovators.
Eliza Fry, the marketing manager for the Office of the Dean of the Goddard School of Business and Economics, stated in an email on Tuesday that the event is open to everyone. While hosted by the Goddard School, Fry noted the event is not limited to business students but is intended for community members, aspiring entrepreneurs, and established business owners interested in goal-setting and success.
The event is free to attend, though attendees are asked to RSVP at weber.edu/business/daymond_john.html.
