Pen Hadow rose to international fame in 2003 when he became the first person to trek solo, without resupply by third parties, from Canada to the North Geographic Pole – a feat which has not been repeated. Within months he went on to become the only Briton to have trekked, without resupply, to both the North and South Poles.
Pen’s exploration and entrepreneurial interests merged in1995 when he founded a specialist polar guide service, The Polar Travel Company, which organizes expeditions to the Poles. In 2009 he formed Geo Mission, a pioneering environmental sponsorship organisation, which delivered the multi-award winning series of Catlin Arctic Surveys (2009-11) investigating the rates, causes and global impacts of the fast-disappearing Arctic sea ice. Geo Mission now offers an environmental consulting service alongside developing new Surveys in the rain forest, mountain and tundra environments.
Pen currently advises FTSE250 businesses on the upgrading and communication of their environmental credentials, speaks to corporate and conference audiences on themes including human performance and environmental responsibility, and provides coaching to individuals and teams.

Testimonials
\\\ Pen Hadow \\\
Pen went down very well when he was here speaking…our major clients were blown away by his achievements. It was a great lunch and a real pleasure to meet Pen and I am grateful to him for giving up the time to honour this commitment.

Pen gave an inspirational talk and captured the full attention of an audience that is notoriously critical of public speakers! He was amusing, stimulating, informing and uplifting and is clearly a man for whom the word ‘impossible’ does not exist! I would thoroughly recommend him to any audience that wished to be inspired and Savills will undoubtedly utilise his services again in the future.
