Some entrepreneurs are natural salespeople, with enough charisma to make even an experienced investor think twice about a product they'd otherwise pass on. Others, when given the opportunity to pitch their big idea, freeze or choke when the big moment comes. But on the weekly streaming showEntrepreneur Elevator Pitch, contestants have only 60 seconds to explain what they have to offer and the type of deal they're looking for.

Each founder has just one minute to deliver their pitch from inside the ascendingEntrepreneur Elevator, while a panel of high-profile investors watches a livestream from the boardroom above. If the elevator pitch hooks the judges, they open the doors and invite the entrepreneur to share more. If not, they send them down.

Meanwhile, this week's investors, including IndyCar race winner Danica Patrick, find themselves conflicted about everything from health benefits to valuations.
