Overview

ICMA members of Switzerland and Liechtenstein attended the shores of lake Zurich at the Belvoir Rowing Club to (re)connect with finance industry peers. Staying on the theme of rowing, attendees were delighted to be joined by Cameron Parker, Head Europe Property & Casualty Structured Solutions at Swiss Re, who shared the power of mindset and transferrable lessons learnt for corporate life from recently completing the world's top two toughest rows across both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Cameron did not only successfully complete these rows, but managed with his team last year to cross the Pacific Ocean in under 35 days, recording the world's fastest record time for crossing the Pacific Ocean for a mixed team, whilst overcoming extreme mental and physical challenges.
