KBT’s 2025 Annual Mid-Year Luncheon

Description

Global trade is in the spotlight for 2025 and, with such a complicated issue, we want to take a closer look at the role of transportation in the global market and challenges it poses for our national defense. Without the significant contributions of the U.S. Navy to maintain stability and security in the maritime domain, thereby supporting global transportation networks, there is little need to spar over tariffs and trade agreements. As a maritime nation, our Navy protects us at sea alongside our allies and partners, and defends freedom, preserves economic prosperity, and keeps the seas open and free. Seaborne commerce accounts for approximately 90% of total global trade. 

Join us this June for KBT’s Annual Mid-Year Luncheon, where we will talk with Rear Admiral Gene Price, USNR (Ret.) and Captain William Hamblet, USN (Ret.) about their naval service at some of the most critical events in recent history and how it has informed their views about the global opportunities and challenges we face today.
