The Annual Ronald Reagan Lecture & Reception

Expanding Margaret Thatcher’s Legacy Through Lectures and Receptions

Honouring the alliance and friendship between Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, the Reagan lectures allow the Margaret Thatcher Centre to introduce their shared values and beliefs to a new generation of people.

Those who attend these events hear from speakers at the forefront of international affairs and reflect on how the alliance can be strengthened in the years ahead.

Opportunities to sponsor these events are numerous and include the lectures themselves. If you are interested in promoting transatlantic relations, this is the sponsorship opportunity for you.

Previous speakers have included:

  • the former US Attorney General, Edwin Meese III
  • the US Senator for Utah, Mike Lee
  • the then Secretary of State for International Trade, the Rt. Hon. Sir Liam Fox
  • the then Secretary of State for International Department, the Rt. Hon. Penny Mordaunt
  • the then Chairman of the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, the Rt. Hon. Tom Tugendhat MBE VR MP
  • the former Leader of the Conservative Party, the Rt. Hon. Sir Iain Duncan Smith MP
  • the 48th Governor of Texas, Greg Abbott.
