Two Harvard Business School students Desiree Davis Stolar and Nate Barbera are behind the product UnshrinkIt. It’s a formula that can fix woolen sweaters that have been accidentally shrunk while washing or drying. You add UnshrinkIt to a gallon of water, soak the sweater for 30 minutes, rinse and then reshape the sweater and let it dry. Stolar and Barbera pitched their business on Shark Tank in 2015. They made a deal with investor Mark Cuban — $150,000 for 15 percent.

Since Shark Tank, both millennial entrepreneurs graduated and received their MBAs from Harvard. While Stolar continues to steer the ship at UnshrinkIt as CEO, in February 2016 Barbera left the company to become an associate at the prestigious consulting firm McKinsey & Company in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area.
