I'm wondering what goes on behind the scenes in the TV program Shark Tank? Whereas there's an agreement between the investors and budding entrepreneurs. Do the investors do all of the investing themselves or do they also bring along other investors, those outside of the program, to also do some of the investing and all?

Thanks.
