Gaby Khalastchy is one step closer to winning a share of £1 million and a chance to pitch her app idea to Richard Branson.

Ms Khalastchy who is a 25-year-old social media manager from north London, developed an app designed to help families looking for activities to do.

Little App has been selected as one of 160 businesses who earned the highest number of public votes in Mr Branson’s Virgin Media Business VOOM 2016 competition.

But Ms Khalastchy, who is expected to take part in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for ‘longest business pitch marathon’ on Thursday, has to send a colleague to pitch for her as the date clashed with her best friend’s wedding.
