Pepita Diamand
Age: 34
Company: Wrapit

Diamand simply calls her business “the best wedding giftlist service in Britain”. It’s easy to see why. The virtual department store and 14 showrooms across the UK will draw in an estimated 200,000 users by the end of the year, boosting turnover to £7.5m from last year’s £5m figure. Canadian-born Diamand raised £2.5m to launch the business in 2000 and has enjoyed growth of 75% a year since 2002 and a recent contract win with Fenwick’s.
