Hey everyone,

I’m excited to announce our next Digg Dialogg with Virgin Group founder and record-breaking adventurer, Sir Richard Branson. We wanted to pay homage to his various aviation pursuits, so for this next installment, Huffington Post Co-Founder Arianna Huffington will be conducting the interview on Virgin America’s inaugural flight from San Francisco to Orange County. We’ll post the interview on the Digg Dialogg page this Monday, May 4th at 10:00am PDT.

Early in his career, Branson led Virgin Music to become one of the top music companies in the world, signing legendary bands like the Sex Pistols and The Rolling Stones. Virgin Group later expanded into other sectors including aviation, hospitality, telecommunications, financial services and clean energy. Branson is also known for his bold attempts to break world records, including the fastest crossing of the Atlantic by boat and transversing the globe in a hot air balloon (breaking the world record crossing the Pacific from Japan to Arctic Canada).

For those of you unfamiliar with Digg Dialogg, it gives you the opportunity to submit and vote up questions that will be posed to influential leaders, change agents and luminaries. Check out previous Digg Dialogg episodes with Nancy Pelosi, Trent Reznor, Al Gore and John Boehner. Sir Richard Branson will be our first business mogul and global adventurer, and should provide an interesting perspective on what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur.

Submit and vote on your favorite questions on the Digg Dialogg page. And as always, let us know what guests you’d like to see in the future.

Thanks,
Kevin
