Happybrush: Thanks to her performance in the Vox show “The Lion’s Den” Happybrush founders Florian Kiener and Stefan Walter became known throughout Germany overnight. The startup from the LMU EC sells various oral hygiene products and focuses on sustainability in their development. The Munich-based company's portfolio includes, among other things, a vegan toothpaste in recycled packaging and a climate-neutral electric toothbrush. And with this, they not only convinced the "lions" Ralf Dümmel and Carsten Maschmeyer in 2017. In their Series A financing in April 2021, they also brought additional investors on board. At that time, Happybrush announced that the startup had already over 5 million products could sell. (Photo: VOX / Bernd-Michael Maurer.)
