Welcome to this Business Breakfast on the security situation in Europe, and the impact on UK and Swedish business and society, featuring Air Chief Marshal Sir Stuart Peach, former Chair of the NATO Military Committee and Chief of the Defence Staff, and Elisabeth Braw, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, columnist and author.

Air Marshal Sir Stuart Peach was appointed as the Prime Minister’s Special Envoy to the Western Balkans in December 2021. Previously Sir Stuart was the 32nd Chairman of the Military Committee of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO); the most senior and longest-standing military structure in the Alliance. Air Chief Marshal Peach was NATO’s most senior military officer and the Military Adviser to the Secretary General and the North Atlantic Council. In addition, he was the UK’s most senior serving officer.

Elisabeth Braw is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), where she focuses on defense against emerging national security challenges, such as hybrid and grayzone threats. Concurrently, she is a columnist with Foreign Policy, where she writes on national security and the globalized economy, and a member of the National Preparedness Commission (UK). Before joining AEI, Ms. Braw was a senior research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies in London, where she founded its modern deterrence project. She has also been an associate fellow at the European Leadership Network, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, and a senior consultant at Control Risks, a global risk consultancy.

The roundtable will be chaired by Magnus Lewis-Olsson, Chairman and President SAAB UK.
