Michael Jackson is, without a doubt, one of the greatest artists in music history and a living legend. In his over 30 years lasting career, the «King of Pop» sold more than 300 million records. His outstanding and record-breaking album Thriller alone sold more than 60 million copies worldwide and is -still to this day- the largest selling album of all the time. Jackson, in three world tours, performed in front of over a billion people. Each of his concerts is always sold out. Michael Jackson is a global brand with an awareness level that is only surpassed by Coca-Cola.

During his unique and outstanding world-career, Michael Jackson relied on Dieter Wiesner's experience and skills as General Manager and CEO of many Michael Jackson business areas (Licensing, Merchandising, Franchising) for more than 10 years.

Dieter Wiesner became Michael Jackson's personal manager and brought the pop icon back in to the public's eye and interest. Moreover, Wiesner formed a new and excellent team (advisors, lawyers, co-workers) around Jackson that came up exactly to Michael Jackson's conception.
Several TV Specials as well as exclusive, and carefully selected apperances also improved the King of Pop's financial situation clearly. Due to Jackson's personal life, finances, and career being in up wind, Wiesner prepared -together with Jackson- the pop legend's biggest dream to become true: the acquisition of one of the world's most renowned animated video companies.
