Publisher's Synopsis
The name Virgin Group is widely known to most people in the world, and so is the name of its founder. Sir Richard Charles Nicholas Branson knew at a very young age that he wanted to be an entrepreneur. He launched his first business venture when he was 16 years old, an age when most teenagers are not even sure what they want to do in their lives. With an estimated net worth of US$5.2 billion (which is increasing with every passing day), Branson was knighted in Buckingham Palace in March 2000.
