Lloyd's Register launches Insight magazine - taking a look at the issues that matter to the industries it serves
Lloyd's Register has launched a new business-level magazine for its clients and other stakeholders. It is called Insight to reflect the level of knowledge that the organisation and its over 8,000 employees acquire through their day-to-day activities serving a wide range of industry sectors. The Group recognises that this insight is of interest and use not only within the organisation, but also to its clients and associates. Lloyd's Register intends its new magazine to convey some of that insight with articles from its experts on a wide range of topics including, in the first issue, sustainability and human factors. Each issue of the magazine will also include interviews with key players in our market sectors.

Contents in the first issue include:
• Climate change: The challenge for business
• Finding the right balance - Step change in marine technology
• Sustainable and innovative - an interview with Colin Walton, Chairman of Bombardier UK
• The human factor in the bottom line
• The nuclear renaissance?
• Food safety, sustainability and security


Insight will cover the whole range of the Group’s activities, across the main sectors it serves – marine, upstream and downstream energy, nuclear, land transport, manufacturing, food, aviation and automotive – and services including human factors and management systems. Each issue of the magazine will include interviews with market sector leaders, viewpoints from experts within the Group and articles from Lloyd's Register’s perspective related to current issues of concern to its stakeholders. There will also be some articles and brief news items about the Group’s activities. Insight will be produced two times a year.

The magazine can be downloaded from the Lloyd's Register web site www.lr.org and hard copies can be requested via the web site or email to kathy.davis@lr.org

Celebrating 250 years of service
In 1760, 11 men met in Edward Lloyd’s coffee house to talk about publishing a list of ships, a register to define their quality and safeguard life and property carried on them. In the years since then we have applied our expertise across the energy and transportation sectors, helping to make the world a safer place. In 2010 we are celebrating 250 years of service and quality and we are looking forward to the new challenges the future brings.
