Sir Richard Branson has developed an interest in Branson Mo
and is looking for business opportunities that might be a fit for his Virgin
Group to find something new and exciting.
Posted on Sir Richard Branson's blog is this statement from
him that says, "As I have recently become a granddad or grand-dude, as we
prefer, three times over, I have found myself looking back further into my
family’s history. This research led me to Branson, Missouri, a wonderful city in
the US that was founded by my great-great-uncle, Reuben S. Branson."
Sir Branson goes onto say "I have always been fascinated by
genealogy. But as a knight of the British realm, I had assumed our family tree
was firmly rooted in the UK. However, the entrepreneurial spirit of the Bransons
first surfaced long before yours truly. I already knew my mum had a flair for
business, but it turns out Reuben S. Branson was the original entrepreneur. My grandparents told me stories as a child about the
American branch of our family, but I had no idea of our legacy in the heart of
the US. While I have been fortunate to build more than 400 companies, Reuben
built a whole city."

"Now I have traced our lineage to Branson, I’m excited to find out more. From Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede to the stunning Ozark Mountains, Branson puts the Show in the Show Me State. I’m looking forward to finding out what opportunities there are for the Virgin Group in Branson and to painting the town red."
This news has created quite a bit of excitement in the Live
Entertainment Capital Of The World. "There are a few of us here in Branson that
have been interested in working with Sir Richard Branson on projects that
interest both us and him says Robert Brim, celebrating 19 years of entertainment
writing for the Branson Missouri area. As an entertainer myself, recording
producer and video, TV and Radio director as well as owner operator of
BransonConnection.com. I can see many avenues to help Branson Missouri turn the
next corner of entertainment as well as offering many fantastic opportunities to Sir Richard
Branson as well." Richard Branson was the person back in 2009 that introduced me
to the use of Twitter as a form of communication requiring me to submit my
Bi-Directional Interactive TV Technologies as a new idea for TV broadcasting and marketing of products to consumers using 140 characters or less."
Sir Richard Branson's catch phrase for his look at Branson, Mo is "I’m looking forward to finding out what opportunities there are for the Virgin Group in Branson and to painting the town red."
We all look forward to a new and exciting relationship with
our visitors, residents and local businesses as we continue to grow and change
as a entertainment and business community. Stay tuned for more news to come as
this relationship grows and Sir Richard Branson becomes yet another new face in
the Town of Branson Missouri.
