The Innovate UK Women in Innovation award was launched in 2016 to encourage more women to apply to Innovate UK funding opportunities. The programme supports women across the UK to fully realise their vision for their businesses and make a real difference to the world through innovation.
Tiffany is the CEO and co-founder of Dyneval, inventor of DAINTech, and the co-founder and former Director of ECFP. She accepted her award plaque from the Innovate UK Business Connect team on the 7th November and afterwards gave an inspiring seminar for students and staff titled “The power of physics: improving efficiencies and sustainability for a better future”.
Tiffany is passionate about using the physics of complex fluids to develop new innovations that will help people live more sustainably and in better health. In 2022, Dyneval launched the Dynescan, the first semen analyser able to measure the lifetime of semen in conditions similar to the reproductive tract. Tiffany and her co-founder, Dr Vincent Martinez developed this technology from the soft matter physics labs at the University of Edinburgh through to market, and it is bringing exciting new data insights to fertilisation capacity through its automated, precise and reproducible measurements.
Tiffany is also the inventor of DAINTech, an innovative new gel phase formulation chassis technology that offers long-term stability and unique and beneficial flow characteristics without the use of synthetic polymers. It offers an alternative potential solution to formulate otherwise challenging ingredient and is expected to be broadly applicable to a wide range of industry applications.
