Call for co-organizers: Workshops on how to access the Japanese market

Are you anticipating a mission to Japan in the near future? Do you want to organize a Japan Day for your local companies? Is the Japanese market of interest for your region and its key sectors?

The EU-Japan Centre is calling for expressions of interest in co-organising Market Access workshops with partnering public and regional organizations in 2025. These workshops provide information and the know-how on accessing the Japanese market, as well as insight on communication and business practices of Japanese counterparts.

Sectors of possible interest and expertise are covered below: 
- Food
- ICT/IoT/digitalisation
- Cleantech/circular economy
- Pharmaceuticals/medical devices
- multiple aspects of Japanese business culture

If you have sectors of interest not covered in the list, please let us know and we will try our best to accommodate you. Depending on the subject covered, the workshops last 1-2 hours online or 3-4 hours at the premises of the local co-organizing partner. All costs regarding the experts will be covered by the EU-Japan Centre.

While it is possible to express interest throughout the year, the number of workshops we can organize is limited. The first round of submissions meant for early planning will close on 31 March 2025. If of further interest or any questions, do not hesitate to contact Ana Horvatin at: workshops(at)eu-japan.eu. We look forward to hearing from you!
