What would you accomplish if you had the chance to do business face-to-face overseas and airfare was not an issue?
British Airways' Face-to-Face contest will fly three planes full of the brightest entrepreneurial minds in the US to London and beyond - for free. The program will offer more than 1,000 business people the opportunity to travel overseas and conduct face-to-face business meetings that will potentially result in deeper partnerships, contracts and revenue for US cities.
AND - through a special partnership - a select group of EO members will be among those given this exclusive opportunity!
Contest Details
EO members from the US will be selected to fly, along with other entrepreneurs selected by British Airways, from New York, Chicago and Los Angeles to London. EO has been given 20 seats on each flight for US members doing business overseas. With hundreds of passengers from all over the US on the three flights, it is only fitting to call this experience a networking event at 38,000 feet.
The prize package includes:
A round-trip ticket anywhere British Airways flies departing from:
New York on 15 September 2009
Los Angeles on 13 October 2009 or
Chicago on 17 November 2009
A send-off event from your departure city allowing you to network with other winners before your flight to London
Then, in London:
A one-night stopover at the Sofitel London Heathrow Hotel
An event featuring networking opportunities and insights on growing your business internationally from top business leaders and government officials
Complimentary Heathrow Express tickets if you need to go into central London
Finally, you can continue on your own path - wherever British Airways flies - to have the meetings you need to move your business forward. The return date is open. Tell us what opportunities you would take advantage of - whether they are meetings with potential investors, visits to distributors, or introductions to new clients. You'll have the time to organize your own meetings for your business in London or beyond before returning to the US.
British Airways understands amazing things can happen when people come face-to-face, and EO membership brings you the chance at once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Ready to join the jet set? Enter the Face-to-Face contest today.
