Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson, (born 18 July 1950) is an English Entrepreneur,businessman and investor.
He is best known as the founder of Virgin Group, which comprises more than 400 companies.
At the age of sixteen his first business venture was a magazine called Student.
In 1970, he set up a mail-order record business.

Branson's Virgin brand grew rapidly during the 1980s, as he set up Virgin Atlantic and expanded the Virgin Records music label.

As a British based blogger and small business holder I have been fascinated with Richard for many years and this site is dedicated to him, his quotes, his business ideas and help.
It's with his help and by following some of what Richard tells us, we too can emulate some of his success.
