VentureCo Office Staff
 Mark Davison, Venture Co-ordinator
Mark was educated at Marlborough College and the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester. His "15 minutes of fame" was leading the expedition that ran Ben Nevis, Sca Fell and Mount Snowdon in 15 hours 28 minutes and that was, for a short time, a Guinness World Record. He worked for many years in Africa as an expedition leader but now spends rather more time driving the office than driving a Land Rover. He still travels from time to time and has led expeditions or explored independently in South America, much of Africa, India and south east Asia. Mark is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.
 David Gordon, Operations Director
David was educated at the Royal Belfast Academical Institution and Queen's University Belfast. While at university he was a commissioned officer in the TA Corps of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. David has followed the Mekong River to Laos, the overland route to Kathmandu and the flight of the condor throughout the Andes. He is a founding director of Overland Latin America and advises several well-regarded organisations on expedition logistics. David is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.
 Dr Paul Morrison, Medical Advisor
Paul provides medical advice and training to VentureCo staff during their Venture Build Up training.

 Andrew Liggins, Marketing Co-ordinator
