5th Shiparrested.com Members’ Meeting, 8-10 May 2008, Riga, Latvia

Our fifth Members’ Meeting took place this time in Riga, chaired by our exclusive Latvian member, Edward Kuznetsov. Like in earlier years, this three-day event turned out to be a highly valuable business meeting. The Members’ Conference privileged the seminar day, but also included a welcoming reception, dinners, and an exciting social program with a tour of Riga and bobsleighing.

The meeting was not only about networking and interaction with a diverse mix of members and guests, the conference was also about sharing interesting topics by top members of our network as follows:

– “Ship arrest in Romania. Applicability of International Conventions” by Adrian Cristea
