The Women's International Shipping and Trading Association, UK, (WISTA UK) presents a panel discussion on the resilience of the subsea cable network. Waves Group have kindly sponsored the event allowing for drinks, canapes and networking following the panel discussion. We will have experts from industry and government to offer their perspective on how resilient the subsea telecoms cable network is, the type of damage claims the industry sees, how P&I insurance responds and insight on potentially malicious actors. The calibre of speakers is exceptional and includes:
Katja Bego – Senior Research Fellow at International Think Tank Chatham House. Katja’s book “Deep Connections: The Hidden Battles to Control Subsea Cables” will be released later this year.
Brigadier Leila Green – Head, Defence Operational Capability, Ministry of Defence
Richard Hill – Subsea cable specialist, Waves Group
Dr Anna Butchart – Cable Security Specialist, BAE Systems
Katherine Edwards – Senior Submarine Cable Investments Manager, Vodaphone
It promises to be a very interesting conversation!
