Is this the most successful Dragons' Den reject ever?

A Bristol inventor may have the most successful business ever to have been turned down by the Dragons on the BBC show 'Dragons Den'. He invented the Trunki in 1997 and went to the Dragons for an investment in 2006.

Since being turned down, his business has taken off, so is he the show's most successful reject?
