Poonam Melwani KC commented:
"I was delighted to be asked to join the LISW27 Board of Advisors alongside such an impressive group of leaders from across the maritime industry. Then I attended our first meeting and was blown away by the care, custodianship and thoughtfulness that this very busy group were bringing to the table. London International Shipping Week brings together and showcases so many different parts of the maritime community. It's a privilege to be involved and I hope to contribute to the conversations, ideas and opportunities that will help shape the future of the sector, by adding my legal perspective and highlighting the important role that London's world-leading legal system plays in underpinning the city's position as a global maritime hub"
