On the occasion of the 2023 edition of London International Shipping Week, we announced last week the establishment of an IAPH office in London, which consists of an office-sharing agreement with our associate member, the British Ports Association (BPA). The agreement builds on the appointment in 2021 of Rhona Macdonald as IAPH policy and IMO liaison officer, who also acts as sustainability advisor for BPA and works from their offices in Park Street, on the South Bank of London, where IAPH now also has a base. Having an office location in London will further deepen our working relationships and ties with the UK-based international maritime community. This notably includes the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), BIMCO and other international organisations with representation in London. The IAPH London office comes in addition to our headquarters in Tokyo where IAPH has been based since 1955.
