The Travelers Institute, the public policy division of The Travelers Companies, Inc., has announced that its series of 2019 educational forums will be focused on combating distracted driving, managing cyber risks, insuring autonomous vehicles, and preparing for severe weather events.
Programs are free and open to the public.
“We saw great engagement throughout our symposia series in 2018 and look forward to continuing to raise awareness of important social topics across the United States and Canada,” said Joan Woodward, president of the Travelers Institute and executive vice president of public policy at Travelers.
“By bringing together community members, entrepreneurs, business leaders, and students, we hope these events will help to identify solutions that will generate real change for widespread societal issues and help people and businesses stay safe,” Ms. Woodward added.
Educational forums planned for 2019 include a series that provides guidance for small and midsize organizations to help them prepare for and respond to data breaches and other cyber incidents, and a symposium to be held at the start of the Atlantic hurricane season, as well as other events focused on natural disaster preparedness, autonomous vehicles, and small business solutions, according to the Travelers Institute.
