In April of 2009, we won a global competition that enabled us to have our two minute video pitch featured on Sir Richard Branson’s web site.  In addition to that our pitch was shown on all Virgin Atlantic flights during the month of June 2009.  Here is a link to the announcement. Check out the first ever PitchTV Show, with Sir Richard Branson introducing us as the first pitch!
