Playbrush
“Playbrush” makes brushing teeth for kids fun, by linking up the toothbrush to a mobile device, allowing the child to play games. This innovative idea, was one of the most popular products on the BBC’s entrepreneurial programme, Dragons’ Den.
Harold became an investor and board member of Playbrush in 2017 and, having children of his own, understands the importance of dental hygiene in kids. This first-of-its-kind solution has been hugely successful and Harold is excited to see how this will continue to grow within the market.
Harold’s involvement with Playbrush came to an end in September 2021 as the company was sold to international oral care experts Sunstar.
