In the latest episode of ‘The Lions’ Den’, former soccer goalkeeper Oliver Kahn surprised investors when he promoted a drone startup via video message. The company, which specializes in organizing overflight rights for drones, was looking for investors to further advance its business idea. Kahn, who acted as a brand ambassador, emphasized the importance of drone technology for the future and highlighted the advantages of the business model.
The startup, led by Dr. Conrad Dreier, offers a platform through which property owners can register and monetize their overflight rights for drones. This technology could be particularly important for the delivery of goods, as it enables efficient and fast delivery. Despite Kahn’s support, investors were skeptical. Frank Thelen expressed concerns about the regulatory challenges that could quickly make the business model obsolete.
While Kahn raved about the possibilities of drone technology, some investors worried about safety. Janna Ensthaler expressed concerns that drones could pose a danger, especially when flying in populated areas. These security concerns ultimately led to the startup having to leave the show without a deal, even though the idea seems innovative and forward-looking.
Oliver Kahn’s appearance on the show shows how important celebrity support can be for startups to attract attention. Nevertheless, prominence alone is not enough to convince investors if fundamental questions about security and regulation are not clarified. The episode highlights the challenges startups face in the fast-moving technology industry and the need to present both innovative ideas and solid business strategies.
