It was 145 years ago that a group of shipowners, committed to the ethos of mutual support, met together in Gothenburg to plan for the business year ahead and develop strategies for the long term future of their new organisation, The Swedish Steam Ship Insurance Association, known today as The Swedish Club.
We are honoured that so many of our members and business partners celebrated The Swedish Club’s 145th Anniversary at this year’s AGM, a very special occasion for us all. Thank you to all guests who participated and shared this historical moment with the Club.
Here are some snapshots of the events. A separate e-mail will be sent to all guests with a link to all photos.
