Ex-national player Michael Ballack will present an idea in the latest season of "Die Höhle der Löwen".
Now it's clear what's going on.
Frankfurt – The 11th season of the TV show "Die Höhle der Löwen*" is coming up.
As has already been announced, Michael Ballack will also present an idea in DHDL.
The ex-national player wants to try to convince well-known investors like Judith Williams* or Ralf Dümmel* of his business.
But which idea or company is it anyway?

So far, the innovation that Ballack will be presenting has been top secret.
There is only one entry under his name in the commercial register: Lucky 13 GmbH.
"The object of the company is the operation of a player agency and brokerage in the field of professional sports and the provision of related consulting and services at home and abroad," it says there.
However, that doesn't seem to be the innovation for the pitch in "The Lion's Den".
As the
picture
wants to know, Ballack is looking for investors for the start-up "Lucky Plant" based in Walsrode in Lower Saxony.
The company sells natural plant strengtheners, according to the website and Instagram channel.
As the gardening
portal Gabot.de
wrote in an article in 2020, the "Lucky Plant" active ingredient has been used in agriculture for many years, and it is now also available to hobby gardeners in the form of effervescent tablets.
Lucky Plant was founded in 2018.
Ballack is the main shareholder of the start-up with 40.5 percent, according to
Bild.
"The Lion's Den" (Vox): Why is Michael Ballack looking for investors?
Why is Ballack pitching for his start-up in the "Lion's Den"?
As the
picture
shows, going into the TV show has several advantages for the company and Ballack itself. DHDL's investors have many years of experience in the sale and marketing of products.
It doesn't matter whether Ballack goes home with a deal or not, the company's performance should definitely draw a lot of attention.
It is not known how much money the ex-Bayern professional has already invested in the Lucky Plant company as the main shareholder.
If he is successful in the "Lion's Den" and gets hold of an investor, he does not have to open his wallet himself in the next round of financing.
It remains exciting whether Ballack can convince the lions Carsten Maschmeyer*, Nico Rosberg*, Ralf Dümmel, Dagmar Wöhrl*, Nils Glagau*, Judith Williams, Georg Kofler* or guest entrepreneur Sarna Röser.
It is still unclear exactly when the ex-national player will present the product on TV.
The new season starts on April 4th.
It will be one of Ballack's first public appearances after the death of his son Emilio.
Most recently, Ballack shared touching words to his deceased son*.
