The chance for four budding entrepreneurs to pitch their idea to Richard Branson is drawing closer, as the Virgin Media Pioneers #VMPitch2Rich competition moves into its second phase.
Eight ideas, out of the hundreds submitted, have been selected and it’s now down to you to decide who will travel to Richard’s family home near Oxford on May 15th to present to the Virgin Group founder and three of his business friends.
The entrepreneurs will get the chance to share a £5,000 investment pot as each judge will have £1,000 to distribute, along with a further £1,000 to the overall winner. Joining Branson on the judging panel will be entrepreneurs from the Fast Track 100 and Virgin CEOs.
Above Dan Watson, one of the eight remaining entrepreneurs, explains his idea of innovative SafetyNet fishing net technology. To see the rest of the ideas submitted, and to cast your vote, visit Virgin Media Pioneers.
