CIS Shark-Tank Project Proposal

If you have property or liability coverage with CIS or are a member of the CIS Servicing Group, you're invited to submit a shark-tank project proposal!

The risk management project must be one that your entity already has in the works or plans on doing in the future.

You are asked to identify:
  • The risk to be addressed by the project
  • How the project will reduce claims
  • How the idea may benefit other CIS members
The projects will be reviewed and evaluated by CIS’ sharks in advance of the conference. Three projects will be selected and presented by the member during a special shark-tank session at the 2024 CIS Annual Conference.

If your project is selected, we will assist you in pre-recording a 3-minute video presenting your idea. The video will be played during the Shark-Tank session at the 23rd CIS Annual Conference to be held Feb. 26 - 28, 2025 at the Salem Convention Center. You will need to be present during the session to answer audience questions.

Finalists are encouraged to be creative with their conference session presentation. The audience will judge your project based on efficacy, transferability, innovation, and creativity. The audience will vote on their favorite project via a live poll, determining who receives the grand prize of $5,000. The first runner-up will receive $2,500, and the second runner-up $1,000.
