Dear Members of the Yale Club of Germany,

A reminder that we have two exciting events on offer in Berlin this Fall, both have limited space, so please RSVP if you are interested in joining.

Also in Berlin, I was honored to be invited to participate in the Founding Event of the Association of German-American Centers at the Federal Foreign Ministry/Auswärtiges Amt yesterday, representing Munich Dialogues on Democracy and The Yale Club of Germany and our partnership with Amerikahaus Munich. A fantastic step forward for German-American friendship!

Boola Boola,

Bartley

NEW WAR MACHINES AND OLD NUCLEAR WEAPONS

Yale SOM Professor Paul Bracken is leading an alumni tour through Berlin in October where he will focus on business, economics, Russia, and military issues. 

A dangerous strategic competition is underway based on AI, cyber, hypersonic missiles, killer drones, laser death rays, logic bombs, satellite killers, and robot weapons. Professor Paul Bracken will describe how these “new war machines” promise to change the international order. At the same time “old nuclear weapons,” a 1945 technology, have spread to nine countries and counting. China’s current “nuclear breakout,” North Korea, and Iran’s effort to get the bomb point to a second nuclear age.

The YAA has offered to open the evening program (lecture and cocktail reception) on October 18th at the Westin Grand in Berlin to members of the Yale Club of Germany.

Please RSVP to president@yaleclub.de if you would like to join the evening for more details!
