GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (via WOOD TV) — A former Grand Valley State University student will appear on ABC’s “Shark Tank” on Sunday.
Jason Grohowski is originally from Alpena, but attended GVSU.
After spending several years in Grand Rapids for college, he moved to Chicago and worked in commercial real estate. During that time he met Mike Bolos, and the two eventually launched their business.
"DeskView in general is a standing desk. Its work surface is 14 inches deep by 24 inches wide, so it’s the perfect amount of space to fit a 15-inch plus laptop and your coffee, your phone — everything you need to get your work done during the day. The best thing about it is it saves so much space,” Grohowski explained during a video phone call Wednesday.
The pair began their venture with a Kickstarter campaign and have sold a couple thousand units across 60 countries, Grohowski said. Now, they are preparing for the boost in sales that will likely come from “Shark Tank.”
