The maritime security firm Solace Global has formed a security advisory board. The company was established in 2010 and is a private maritime security company (PMSC) based in Poole. Michael Crawford CMG and Russell Corn are on its newly formed Advisory Board.
Michael Crawford CMG has been a consultant specialising in strategic political risk in the Middle East since 2010. He served the British Government at home and overseas between 1981 and 2009, including in Yemen, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. During his career, he worked on Middle East and South Asian politics, counter-terrorism, counter-proliferation and global security issues.
Russell Corn, pictured, is a former UK Special Forces officer with commercial experience in the risk management sector. Having begun his career as the Group Operational Security Manager at Prudential Plc, he left to build the UK and European operations of Diligence Inc. In 2011 Russell established Fulcrum Consulting Ltd, which advises corporate and private clients in matters relating to counter-party and political risk, business intelligence and security. Russell is also a Partner in Fulcrum Chamber LLP and as such is one of the first non-lawyers to be accepted into a law firm following the Legal Services Act of 2007.
David Peach, CEO at Solace Global, says: ”It is a privilege to have both Michael and Russell join Solace Global’s Advisory Board. Both are key figures in the industry with a wealth of experience and their guidance will no doubt play an integral role in our successful development.”
