I wonder why none of the Virgin companies are sponsoring this?

Anyway, he is undoubtedly a brave explorer and i'm sure we all wish him a safe expedition. Full info. and the option to receive email updates at:

Maybe because the point of sponsorship is to raise money from outside your companies......

I guess that must be the reason, but, for example, in the case of Virgin Media, he is not a majority shareholder, so I would have thought that he would try and get sponsorship where he has some influence.

In my own company, when we hold charity auctions, we do seek sponsorship from others, but always put something in ourselves.
