The University of Winchester, sponsors
of Entrepreneur of the Year Award in the Winchester
Business Excellence Awards, have short listed
their category down to a final 4.

“We have been delighted by the number and
quality of the applications received for this
year’s Entrepreneur of the Year Award. It
was no easy task to select the four finalists

to select the overall winner as they are all exceptional
in their own way.”
Brush Baby – Ms Dominique
Tillen
Brush-Baby is a new innovative product inspired
by a little girl, designed by her mum, endorsed
by Dentists. Ms Dominique Tillen launched her
first product in 2008 which has now become one
of the market-leaders in oral hygiene. Brush-Baby
is soft and flexible, making it gentle on tender

find it fascinating, bendy and fun. Brush-Baby's
soft bristles massage gums and help to remove
the sugars, starches and other foods that can
lead to tooth decay from little teeth and gums.
