Senior Lecturer in Marketing and Strategy, Cardiff University
My research looks at relationships between organizations. I’m concerned with groups of organizations that come together to work on a particular project. These alliances are never straight forward and may need help to get to the main goals of the project. Contracts coordinate some of the effort in these circumstances but what particularly interests me is what happens in those areas where the contract either doesn’t apply or doesn’t work. Creative endeavours and collaborative solution building are examples of this and are an increasing feature of our working world. Getting this right is essential for successful project outcomes and this is never more important than when organizations come together to solve human impact issues. Achieving net zero in aviation and even zero emissions - true zero – is possible with successful collaboration. Getting there requires a good understanding of the different agendas and obligations of an enormous range of organizations many of which don’t currently operate in the aviation sector. This is what I’ve been working on with colleagues in Australia and the UK. Jet zero councils and taskforces are the first step up a steep hill. They are unique in having the capacity and authority to push up the incline. My work in sectors such as construction has shown that building good will between the varied organizations and having a common goal can drive success. Carbon abatement in the aviation sector is a pretty compelling goal to rally around.
I hold a PhD, MPhil, MSc and a BSc. I am a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, UK.

Research Fellow in Palaeontology, University of Portsmouth
I'm a palaeontological author, artist and researcher based on the south coast of the UK and affiliated with the University of Portsmouth. I'm best known for my research on pterosaurs and, more recently, my contributions to palaeoart - the evidence-led restoration of extinct organisms in drawings, paintings, sculpture and film.
My background is based more in scientific research than writing and artistry. I obtained my PhD from the University of Portsmouth in 2008 after three years of studying pterosaurs, the flying reptiles contemporaneous with non-avian dinosaurs. I remain active in pterosaur research, but since completing my thesis I've found myself employed more as an artist and consultant on the life appearance of extinct animals than as a traditional academic. My career has thus shifted focus to reconstructing extinct animals, and I now spend more of my time considering the history, methods and technical details of this topic than flying reptiles. I've been lucky to impart some of this knowledge to major media clients, with my creature designs and input being used by the BBC, National Geographic, Royal Mail and the Royal Mint. Alongside my papers, books and book chapters on palaeoart, I also post regularly about palaeoart topics at my blog. My artwork has been displayed around the world in venues such as the Natural History Museum, American Museum of Natural History, Yale Peabody Museum and London's South Bank.

Professor of History, Vanderbilt University
Marshall Eakin is a historian of Latin America specializing in the history of Brazil. Although his work spans all of Brazilian history, his major publications have concentrated on the processes of nationalism and nation-building, economic and business history, and industrialization—primarily in the twentieth century.
His first book, British Enterprise in Brazil: The St. John d’el Rey Mining Company and the Morro Velho Gold Mine, 1830-1960 (Duke, 1989), traces the history of the most successful foreign enterprise in 19th- and 20th-century Brazil. Tropical Capitalism: The Industrialization of Belo Horizonte, Brazil (Palgrave, 2001) examines the industrialization of the second-largest industrial center in Brazil.
Much of his work addresses audiences beyond the academy. This work includes Brazil: The Once and Future Country (St. Martin’s, 1997), a one-volume introduction to Brazil for beginners and two video courses with the Great Courses, The Conquest of the Americas and The Americas in a Revolutionary Era. His more recent book is The History of Latin America: Collision of Cultures (Palgrave Macmillan, 2007). Eakin’s latest book project is “Becoming Brazilians: Race and National Identity in Twentieth-Century Brazil” to be published by Cambridge University Press in 2017.
