We are deeply saddened that Mike Josypenko, our much-loved Director of Special Projects, has passed away.
Mike has been with the Institute of Export & International Trade since 2014 though he has been associated with international trade for a great deal longer, touching many peoples’ lives and helping many would-be exporters.
His easy-to-understand and 'can do' attitude brought him friends and admirers from around the globe and, most importantly, his knowledge of world trade was second to none. His contribution to the Institute and to global trade will be remembered for a long time, and he will also be remembered fondly as a wonderful friend and colleague.
He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts go out to his family.
