TV review
A cleaner that removes pesticides from fruit and vegetables, a payment ring and a refill station for organic shampoo: At the start of the 12th season, the start-ups really impressed with their innovative ideas. There was also an innovation in the round of investors. The newly merged entrepreneurs Dümmel and Kofler are now appearing as a duo – and beaming like they were on their honeymoon.
Like the two Muppet Show opis Waldorf and Statler, Ralf Dümmel and Georg Kofler sat on their two-seater sofa. After the merger of their companies, they are now dealing in a double pack – fortunately no longer in a joint presence from episode two onwards. Because the constant whispering and chuckling of the two entrepreneurs disturbed the general business climate. In addition, I-buy-everything-dummel was noticeably inhibited by Des-is-a-bit-little-Kofler. They both invested anyway. Among other things, in a young man who prefers to spend his free time with his 3D printer.
The presented products:
- : According to the inventor, the “safest bicycle bag in the world” is a mini safe for utensils such as lights and speedometer and, thanks to solar modules, also serves as a power bank. Of the star tested the product in advance.
- : The granules of baking soda, citric acid and salt remove around 80 percent of pesticides from fruit and vegetables. Of the star also tested this product in advance.
- Mama’s falafel dough: The ready mix for falafel follows a traditional Arabian recipe and can be thawed from the freezer.
- pagopace: The ceramic ring replaces the credit card and enables contactless payment worldwide.
- Withoutme: The shampoo and shower gel made from aloe vera, horsetail and sage uses a stainless steel bottle instead of plastic and can be refilled at special machines.
The perfect Daniel jet engine double
Anyone who programs their first scripts at the age of twelve may not necessarily be an ace on the climbing frame. After all, he can ride a bike, as 17-year-old Aaron from Berlin proved and did one or two laps through the studio, giving a presentation that was ready for the press. His product is called BeeSafe is a kind , which you can convert into a luggage rack – yo, you can do it. But the lions were much more interested in the brain of the young genius, which is full of other ideas. Carsten Maschmeyer served the Gyro Gearloose as a “startup coach” and allied himself with Dümmel and Kofler to form an alpha animal alliance. “With us you come from Zero to Hero,” Maschmeyer pitched a little lean. The super talent would have deserved a better saying, but accepted the offer anyway.
Green deal of the week
That was close. From Hero to (almost) Zero in 15 minutes. The jury was only fired up for the . But the more the founding couple talked about the supposed miracle cure, the more the faces of the lions froze to ice. The application, in which the fruit and vegetables have to be placed in lukewarm water, takes a quarter of an hour. The first sales balance is rather meager. And the effective cleaning result didn’t turn out to be the ultimate pesticide burner either: around 85 percent fewer potential pathogens with Lemonist, and almost 70 percent could only be washed off with water. In the end it still “dumbled”. “You’re doing something better than it is today.”
The most hyped idea
Compared to this “wonder of the world” (Maschmeyer), the Ring of the Nibelung is just cheap costume jewelry. The “Pago” of Pagospace can – potentially – do everything: it is a credit card on your finger, you can use it to open your car and you can even save your identity card and vaccination certificate on it. The only problem is that there is already such a ring in England and it’s not doing well at all. That didn’t fit Carsten Maschmeyer’s vision of world domination on the contactless payment market. The venture capitalist needed a moment to collect himself – then he had a bombshell: “I’ll get you a celebrity with international reach, who has tens of millions of followers and walks around with the ring himself.” The founding trio was thrilled. “Will you pay in cash or with Pago?”
applause and out
The typical chicken-and-egg dilemma: the Heilbronn one-woman company Withoutme would like to avoid plastic waste with a refill system for shampoo and shower gel bottles. Only: In order for customers to buy the stainless steel bottles, which are not very cheap, there must be charging stations across the board. However, without bottles sold, no supermarket will set up vending machines. Nils Glagau: “You chose the most difficult of the difficult.” at Mama’s falafel dough, the show’s second no-deal, things were different. The ready-made falafel tasted great for the lions, but: Amjad Abu Hamid, the founder, is a comedian in his main job and tours Germany when there is not a pandemic. Stand up or start up? The German-Palestinian didn’t want to make a decision. “After the performance I just sell falafel.”
