OTTAWA — Life will imitate art – or in Ottawa’s case, the popular reality TV show “The Shark Tank.”  The Ottawa Area Chamber of Commerce is joining with Ottawa University and local businesses to set up a new entrepreneurial training program for young students, said chamber president John Coen says.  The program, which Coen called a copy of  “The Shark Tank,” will offer high school students advice on forming businesses, creating products, developing a marketing plan and then presenting their ideas to a panel of business owners in hopes of getting the funding.  Ottawa University graduate student Sammie Ford III will head up the program.
