He later joined the Pilkington Glass Group UK working in their Fiberglass Division, gaining considerable international experience associated with the sale of alkali resistant glass fiber products used in the manufacture of a wide range of architectural facade treatments in construction.

By 1980, Keith’s management and marketing experience was further enhanced by taking up a keystone role in developing a local Business Plan and Feasibility Study for a Saudi Arabian based Joint Venture project. This role involved project coordination and logistics with three multi-national partners located on two continents, as well as negotiating project finance with venture capital sources and international banks. Upon completion, the feasibility study project was given the “green light” and Keith was appointed General Manager of this Riyadh based, Saudi Arabia Company.
