By Masatoshi Sato, Country Manager at ACT Group in Japan
“Many Japanese companies are facing challenges in decarbonisation solutions, and we recognise that there is a high level of expectation for the services we provide. The business introduction during the pitching session effectively highlighted our company to participants, which in turn had a positive impact on the booth activities. Additionally, by having multiple European companies exhibit together, we were able to establish an image of introducing cutting-edge businesses from European companies.”
