The Port of Los Angeles recently honored the International Association of Ports and Harbors (IAPH) 70th anniversary, recognizing the global ports organization\u2019s outstanding work for seven decades on critical issues facing ports around the world.<\/p>\n

The IAPH milestone was celebrated at a Port of Los Angeles-sponsored networking event during the Trans-Pacific Maritime Conference (TPM25), organized by S&P Global, held this year at Long Beach Convention Center. TPM is an annual gathering of senior-level professionals in the global shipping and logistics industries.<\/p>\n

Kicking off the Port\u2019s networking event, Port Executive Director Gene Seroka presented a certificate of honor to IAPH Managing Director Patrick Verhoeven. Also in attendance was Consul General Kenko SONE, Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

In his remarks, Seroka noted the historical significance of the IAPH tribute. Los Angeles\u2019 own Roosevelt Hotel was the site of the first-ever IAPH conference in 1955, the result of a U.S.-Japan initiative to increase cooperation among ports around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is my great honor to recognize IAPH for its remarkable global leadership and many achievements over the last seven decades,\u201d said Seroka, who was elected in 2023 to serve as one of six volunteer IAPH vice presidents representing regions around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is also fitting that this recognition comes 70 years after IAPH was founded right here in the great City of Los Angeles.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCelebrating this 70th anniversary here in Los Angeles with the American ports community today at TPM is a fitting tribute to those key people from that same community who founded IAPH alongside their Japanese port colleagues back in 1955,\u201d said IAPH Managing Director Patrick Verhoeven.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to returning to Kobe, Japan in October to celebrate on the Asian side of the Pacific during the World Ports Conference.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
