The Travelers Institute, the public policy division of The
Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV), will host a webinar
Wednesday, July 19, titled “Global Hot Spots and Geopolitical
Risks,” featuring former U.S. Secretary of Defense Dr. Mark T.
Esper.
“Dr. Esper has unique insights into foreign policy, economic and
national security issues – from overseeing conflict in Iran and an
ongoing campaign in Afghanistan to mitigating supply chain
disruptions and addressing a global pandemic,” said Joan Woodward,
President of the Travelers Institute and Executive Vice President
of Public Policy at Travelers. “We look forward to discussing what
these unending tensions might mean for the insurance industry and
all businesses.”
Esper served as the 27th Secretary of Defense from 2019 to 2020.
During his tenure, he implemented a new National Defense Strategy
focused on China and Russia; took measures to improve the nation’s
cyber capabilities; proposed a future force structure for the U.S.
Navy; and launched novel warfighting and readiness concepts, among
other initiatives. Before becoming Defense Secretary, Esper served
as the 23rd Secretary of the Army from November 2017 until June
2019.
Esper said, “I look forward to speaking with Joan and the
broader community about the issues facing our country today, and
how we might move the nation forward during challenging global
times that are complicated by a very partisan political environment
here at home.”
The session, which will be moderated by Woodward, will be held
at 1 p.m. ET. The webinar is part of the company’s Wednesdays with
Woodward® series, which is free and open to the public. Those
interested in attending can register here.
