Entrepreneur hopes he has more than fat chance in Den

August 16th, 2010

AN EDINBURGH entrepreneur will face a grilling tonight when he pitches his fat busting product on BBC’s Dragons Den.
German-born Ralf Klinnert, 40, is seeking investment for his electronically controlled “Funky Cones”, aimed at encouraging youngsters to exercise and improve agility and fitness.

The electronic engineer, who has lived in the Capital for 10 years, is pitching for £120,000 investment in return for a 20 per cent stake in his company Funky Moves, which is based at the Alba Innovation Centre, Livingston.

To play the game, cones are laid out a distance apart and programmed to flash in various sequences.

Players have to memorise as they run between them touching the top of the cones which emit sounds if they have followed the pattern of lights correctly.

The show will be shown tonight on BBC 2 at 9pm.
