“When the Walrus Foundation produces our nation-wide series of Walrus Talks, having strong partners is key to our success. The University of King’s College was an excellent partner for The Walrus Talks Innovation, and the campus was a beautiful place to host an event.”
David Leonard,
Director of Events,
