Celebrating 20 Years 

This year has been a special year for the Executive MBA in Shipping and Logistics (The Blue MBA) because it marks the 20th Anniversary of the programme! We celebrate our Founding Programme Director, Irene Rosberg, because through her unassailable work ethic and dedication the programme has maintained a vital relevance to the sectors served. So far the programme has graduated 315 candidates – from 45 countries – who all hold senior management positions globally and here in our Danish capitol which is one of the leading hubs of shipping innovation. Irene recruits classes as diverse as possible both geographically and industry specific, and she has helped bridge the gender gap by encouraging female executives. She emphasises the essential “human element” to the digitalisation of the industry and ensures that participants learn from each other, their tutors, and are integrated into a lasting and close network of professionals so that lifelong learning is made possible. It is for these reasons and so many more that the Blue MBA is the #1 Shipping and Logistics MBA in the world.
