Happy Holidays from the British American Business Council

To celebrate the holiday season, members of the British American Business Council gathered at the Racquet Club of Philadelphia for an afternoon of business networking, celebratory “crackers,” holiday fare and great raffle prizes. At our 15th annual “Holiday Luncheon” on Friday, December 4, 2009 we were joined by British expat Jamie Pallot, editorial director of Condé Nast Digital. Among his other responsibilities, Pallot is in charge of the content and user experience of the company’s Web brands, including Style.com, Men.Style.com, Epicurious.com and Concierge.com. With pictures of himself and Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine, flashing across the screen, Jamie discussed how he got to where he is today, intermingled with appropriate jabs and jokes that made the Holiday Luncheon what it’s supposed to be: A break from “the grind” for an afternoon of laughs and celebration.
