Read will work with government agencies and officials to help improve their disaster response and recovery capabilities using platforms and data collected by the company’s SAR satellites.
“Andy has extensive experience leading government programs focused on natural catastrophe resilience and working with private sector risk carriers to support their mission – both are critical areas for us, where demand for solutions is growing daily,” said Charles Blanchet, vice president of solutions at ICEYE.
