Logistics Plus, Inc. (LP), announced that Founder and Chairman Jim Berlin has been reappointed to the G7 Business Advisory Council for Ukraine (BAC) for a new 12-month term beginning July 1, 2026.

The BAC, established under the Ukraine Donor Platform (UDP), serves as a bridge between the international business community and Ukraine's government, advising on investment climate reforms, derisking strategies, and private sector engagement in Ukraine's reconstruction.

Members of the BAC are nominated and approved by, and advise, the members of the UDP, which include the government of Ukraine and the members of the G7 (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the European Union).

Berlin has served on the BAC since its formation by the G7 governments in 2024 and is one of three U.S. representatives on the council, which includes senior executives from companies and organizations across more than a dozen countries. Berlin will participate in the 2026 Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC), taking place June 25–26 in Gdansk, Poland, including a joint BAC-UDP Steering Committee session focused on boosting private sector engagement for Ukraine's recovery.

"Jim's continued service on the BAC reflects LP's long-standing commitment to Ukraine and its people," said Logistics Plus SVP of Global Government Solutions Derek Berlin. "From our operations supporting Erie's sister city of Chornomorsk to Jim's advocacy at the highest levels of international business diplomacy, Ukraine remains close to our hearts and central to our global mission."
