IRON MAIDEN frontman Bruce Dickinson was a guest speaker at Kongres 590, a forum of exchanging ideas and experiences of Polish specialists in areas such as business, science, politics and legislation. The two-day event, which was held November 17-18, was attended by Polish president Andrzej Duda, prime minister Beata Szydło and representatives of public institutions, including Polish Development Fund and PAIiIZ. A video interview with Dickinson, conducted by TVP3, can be seen below. Being lead singer of IRON MAIDEN is just one of Dickinson's many accomplishments. He gained a commercial pilot's license after learning to fly in the 1990s. In 2012 he set up Cardiff Aviation, an aircraft maintenance company which has recently signed an agreement with the Djibouti government to help re-launch their national airline. The Nottinghamshire-born singer has also relaunched interest in Zeppelin-like airships, having invested a reported £250,000 in the world's largest aircraft: a hybrid of a plane, balloon and hovercraft, the Airlander 10. If that wasn't enough, he has also created an aircraft fleet as a one-stop solution for airlines to use. On top of this, Dickinson is also an accomplished international fencer. Having overcome cancer in 2015, the singer is writing his autobiography for release in 2017, crafting a limited-edition beer. This is in addition to the two Trooper beers already in production, which have sold over 3.5 million pints in the U.K. He has been described as a polymath and, adding to his prodigious talents, he now brings together all his business creativity and experience and, as a speaker, shares it with corporate audiences, entertaining, inspiring and motivating them in keynotes around the world.
