Pioneers’ Indian Trade Mission

Originally written by Jack Preston for Virgin

Last week five Virgin Media Pioneers joined Richard Branson and Virgin Atlantic in India, as they networked their way around Mumbai and Delhi on an international trade mission.

During their time in India the Pioneers spent time networking with local entrepreneurs, building bridges between the two countries and of course picking a few tips off the Virgin Group Founder over dinner.

To get Branson’s take on the trip, including a slightly embarrassing story about one of our young Pioneers, head over to his blog.

To find out more about their work, click onto the Virgin Media Pioneers website.

An early start for the Pioneers saw them arrive at Heathrow for 5 a.m…

…they were soon at their hotel however, where they received quite a welcome…

…with no time to rest they were off to the British High Commission in Delhi for a working lunch…

…although they managed to find time for a spot of sight-seeing at the ‘India Gate in Delhi.
