"Just one meeting with Jean-Marc Philippe, creator of the KEO project, confirmed our decision to offer our support to KEO. Several aspects of the project's concept have enchanted us.

First and foremost, at a symbolic level, this winged sphere whose wings beat to stimulate its flight, then separate, leaving the sphere alone to pursue its journey silently across its orbit for 50,000 years before returning to Earth amidst luminosity and lightin order to transmit the memories of the 21st century to our faraway descendants, is the carrier of a very beautiful facet of our dreams.

On a more practical note, the quality of the partners that Jean-Marc Philippe has succeeded in associating KEO with to make the project a reality, proves the credibility and the seriousness of his initiative and we are motivated to join the partners that have already given their stamp of approval to KEO.

And finally, for MARSH, global leader in insurance brokerage, being associated with KEO, with all its humanistic and generous ambitions, that reach out to all the generations to come, and clearly targeting the future, seemed especially adapted and well suited, because MARSH conceives its collaboration with its clients and partners in a global way that promises to be long term."
