Registration will open before the end of May for PHC 2015, which will be held Monday, July 20 to Thursday, July 23, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee.
 
 We're hard at work on the conference agenda, which will include the annual management report, as well as sessions covering cyber risk management, results of the ERM survey we’re conducting with St. John’s University among AEGIS members, an insider’s look at AEGIS London, the use of drones by energy companies, recovery from catastrophic events, renewables, construction, and contractual risk transfer. Bob Hartwig, President of The Insurance Information Institute, will join us again to present his popular overview of current economic and insurance market conditions, which always provides a useful context for other conference presentations and discussions.
 
 We will also host an AEGIS 101 Lunch and Learn for members and brokers who are new to AEGIS on Tuesday, July 21. There will be an open-mic period during which newcomers can ask any questions about AEGIS, and the informal lunch setting will encourage valuable networking.
 
 The AEGIS reception on Wednesday evening at the iconic and historic Grand Ole Opry will feature Southern BBQ favorites, amazing music, and entertainment that you can only find in this vibrant and creative city. The tours will take full advantage of Nashville and include visits to the Ryman Auditorium, Country Music Hall of Fame, Johnny Cash Museum, an authentic Southern mansion, and the Frist Center for the Visual Arts, as well as tours that will let you sample the city’s famous food and drink.
 
 We look forward to seeing you, your families and guests at this exciting new PHC venue in Nashville for PHC 2015!
