Elyse Dickerson
CEO of Eosera
on her company’s business philosophy, via D CEO.

Fort Worth-based Eosera all started when Dickerson realized it had been decades since there had been significant progress in the world of earwax removal, and decided to find a way to help. She and Joe Griffin left big pharma behind, found a lab at the UNT Health Center, and launched a company.

Today, Eosera makes a half-dozen products sold on shelves across the country by Amazon, Target, CVS, and more.

"We knew it would be much easier to find a hole in the market and try to fill it rather than build a product and go find a place for it," she told D CEO. "We heard loud and clear that there was an opportunity, as no one was focused on ear care.”
