If a 'Nominee' is unable to attend a Lecture or it is more appropriate for a colleague to attend a particular event, that individual may attend subject to prior notice being provided.
A Level 2 Corporate Member is an organisation that is starting a close working relationship with RUSI. In addition to the benefits offered to Level 1 members, Level 2 Corporates are allowed access to our accomplished and versatile research staff.
An essential element of the Institute's research work is the 'closed' forum conducted in conjunction with several of the study programmes and attended by Corporate Level 2 nominness and renowned experts. Averaging ten meetings annually, each meeting begins with brief opening remarks from an official or individual thoroughly versed in the topic being considered. Discussions then follow, in order to better understand the issues involved and to explore future prospects. The success of the forum is determined by the positive involvement of the participants. The discussions cover issues of particular and timely concern and the interchange of views both inform and stimulate the formulation of future policy choices. The purpose of each forum is to provide practical foundations for the translation of ideas into prospective realities.
The subscription is based upon the number of individuals nominated by the Corporate Member. Corporte Level 2 Membership starts at £2,800 +VAT for one nominee and additional nominees are added at £280 + VAT each.
