Kingston alum talks at BIS - Wednesday 7 October

On Wednesday 7 October, Kingston space alumnus and lecturer Dave Wade will be talking at the British Interplanetary Society (BIS) in Vauxhall (just 25 mins by train from Kingston). Dave now works in the City of London for the Atrium Space Insurance Consortium and, with David Todd of Ascend Worldwide Ltd, will be talking about the space insurance market, the hidden hazards for space insurers, what insurance cover space insurers provide and they assess the risks associated with satellites and launch vehicles. The talk starts at 7.00 pm.

If you are not a BIS member, then the ticket will be £5 - you can book here.

Alternatively, why not join the BIS (I joined in my first year at university and have been a member ever since). If you are a student, the membership is £18 per year. Join here!
