Events and Outreach
RPI’s cross-disciplinary seminars and workshops provide members direct access to the experts and their research results prior to publication. We host bespoke in-house meetings for the benefit of industry, as well as supporting speakers for conference attendance. Recent examples of events we have worked on include:
- Tropical Cyclone Intercomparison Project Workshop – September 2017 Columbia University, New York

- Research Update Workshop – October 2016, Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences
- Seminar on European Windstorms – June 2016, XL Catlin, London
- We also support the local understanding of natural hazard risk in the Bermuda community through our Bermuda Risk project.
- Examples of our efforts here include:
- Mentorship of local students in risk-related subjects
