Lars Robert Pedersen has over 30 years' experience in the shipping industry, which combined with his insight into IMO makes him a respected authority on technical and regulatory issues.

In early 2010, Robert was appointed Deputy Secretary General of BIMCO, which is the world's largest international shipping association providing a wide range of services to over 2,200 members globally.
