The Last Millionaire

posted on Wednesday, November 12, 2008 12:02 AM

Hey Guys, just finished a program with the BBC on business, was a fun challenge, they dropped 12 like minded entrepreneurs into a new city every week.

Here is the release:

The Last Millionaire takes 12 of Britain's most successful young entrepreneurs and drops them into six of the world's most exciting and demanding cities. Here they face the ultimate business challenge; to make money from scratch in just five days.

Used to running successful businesses, these award winning entrepreneurs have proved themselves at home, but can they do it abroad? This time they'll be stripped of their legions of staff, company contacts, personal cash/credit cards and all their business lifelines. All they have left is a small amount of start up capital plus their raw money making talent.

To make it even tougher the entrepreneurs won't be travelling in the style they're used to. Instead of five star accommodation they'll be staying in backpacker hostels and surviving on a limited budget for food and drink. The only way back to their lavish lifestyles is to make more money than their rivals.

Visiting a new city every week the entrepreneurs must work in pairs. They can choose who they work with each week. And it's only the most successful partnership which gets to go home. The losing pairs continue until there are only two left. In the final week they go head to head where one will become The Last Millionaire.
Check it out if you have BBC 3 or Sky plus, it will also be online for international viewers...
