How building and integrating your Japanese Partners & Team into your strategy determines success or failure
Registration is closed!
Are you currently collaborating with Japanese business partners or have a dedicated local team on the ground in Japan? Then this event is tailor-made for you.
Why? Because being there is, in fact, not everything. If you want to be successful in Japan, you must learn how to effectively motivate and engage your partners and team on the ground. That’s easier said than done. Japan still has an inherently unique way of doing business and this does not only pertain to the act of exchanging business cards. Rather, an entire industry may work completely differently than it does in Switzerland. You thus must learn how to adapt to those specific intricacies if you wish to survive in the land of the rising sun. And it all starts with creating a mutual understanding.
Join us during this exclusive live event, where experts will reveal the key success factors that will help you build a strong presence in Japan. We will draw conclusions from real life cases and our experts’ profound & yearlong experience in the market.
This event isn't just about passive learning; it's an interactive experience! Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, engage in dynamic discussions, and gain personalized advice from our experts.
Whether you're already doing business in Japan or planning to take the leap, this event is a must-attend.
The seminar will start with a networking breakfast during which you can further exchange experiences and insights with our experts and fellow Swiss companies active in the japanese market.
Spaces are limited, so secure your spot now! We look forward to welcoming you to this insightful event and helping you pave the way for success in Japan!
