Winner of ‘Astronauts, Do you Have What It Takes?’ Suzie Imber has dedicated her career to developing an understanding of the natural world and how we can benefit it. An avid mountaineer, space physicist, science lecturer, Suzie’s expertise span a range of subject areas, and have led her to become a highly sought after speaker for her comprehensive approach. Armed with over a decade of experience in the environment, from space weather to high altitude climbing, Suzie is the ideal speaker to educate and inspire an audience.

Rising to prominence in 2017 when she won ‘Astronauts, Do you Have What It Takes?’ Suzie gained the backing of astronaut Chris Hadfield in applying to the international space programme. Having previously completed a degree, master and PhD in physics, and held the role of a Research Scientist for NASA, Suzie was a standout for the opportunity. Since, she has continued her leading work, focusing on space weather as an Associate Professor of Space Physics at the University of Leicester and a Visiting professor at the University of Michigan.

One of Suzie’s passions is mountaineering, an adventure that has allowed her to combine her knowledge of science, love of nature and innovative mindset. From being the first to climb untouched mountains in the Andes, to developing computer code that identifies undiscovered ranges, Suzie has fearlessly gone where others before her have not. As part of her mountaineering exploits, Suzie has become an advocate for sustainability and climate responsibility, having seen first-hand the challenges the natural world is facing.

As a popular speaker, Suzie is booked to share her insights supported by personal experience and scientific fact, to educate audiences on environmentally friendly practices. Through individual and corporate intervention, the climate crisis can be combatted, and Suzie is the ideal speaker to support audiences in being the solution.

“If you could pass on our thanks to Suzie, what a great talk, had amazing feedback from the team, they found it really interesting and informative and I just wanted Suzie to know that she had a massive impact on them.  We had 94 participants at one point which is pretty impressive when we are all zoom fatigued and I have had many requests for the recording from those who couldn’t see it.  Suzie brought a greater understanding on climate change to us all.”

Samantha, HR & Office Coordinator, INTELEX

“Thank you so much for coming to our event last night and for your wonderful and inspiring presentation to our crowd. You hit absolutely the right notes for what we are hoping to achieve with Antarctica In Sight – to engage with Antarctica, its past, present and future and how we might understand and protect it – I couldn’t be happier. The feedback we have had from the event has been tremendous, and we owe that in no small part to you, the room was buzzing afterward.”
