Die Höhle der Löwen introduces new investor Johannes Kliesch
The 20th anniversary season of the German investment show ‘Die Höhle der Löwen’ features new developments and diverse startup pitches. Johannes Kliesch has joined the investor panel as a new ‘Löwe’, marking a fresh addition to the existing group of investors.
During recent episodes, several startups presented unique products. Food designer Stefano Suich, supported by TV chef Johann Lafer, pitched a two-component ‘Wunderdressing’ consisting of oil and vinegar combinations. While the investors praised the taste, they expressed doubts regarding the business model.
Another pitch featured ‘plümoBaum’, a system created by Benjamin Koch and Yavuz Akbas designed to dry pillows and blankets using telescopic rods and air channels to improve hygiene. However, the product faced harsh criticism from investors, including Frank Thelen, who questioned its utility.
