That Baltic Control Group has been acquired by a TIC colleague like Apave is an incredible milestone and achievement.

The Baltic Control® management team will continue since the former owners Karina E. Nielsen and Martin E. Pedersen, both are committed to stay as CEOs for the three companies of Baltic Control Group: Baltic Control®, Baltic Control® Certification and Baltic Academy.

In 2007 Martin E. Pedersen and Karina E.

During the years it has been both fun and challenging but also a lot of hard work and Baltic Control Group really is very special to us. As stated above, we have no intentions of leaving Baltic Control Group because our journey continues, and new goals lay ahead. We love what we do, working with employees, partners and clients worldwide and running Baltic Control Group to achieve its full potential, now backed by Apave Group”.
