EU-Japan Business Cooperation in Foreign Markets

The EU-Japan Centre updated its list of case studies showcasing successful EU-Japan partnerships in foreign markets such as Africa and Latin America. Through these case studies, the EU-Japan Centre aims to encourage EU and Japanese companies to consider collaboration not only in the EU and Japan but also in foreign markets.

Updated Case Studies of EU-Japan Business Cooperation in Africa & Latin America
Since 2022, the EU-Japan Centre has facilitated the connection between EU and Japanese companies interested in working together in foreign markets.
Over the years, the Centre has compiled two lists of case studies detailing existing partnerships between EU and Japanese companies in Africa and Southeast Asia. Today, new cases were added to the list in Africa, and a new list was published for EU-Japan projects in Latin America. Through these case studies, the Centre aims to encourage EU and Japanese companies to consider collaboration in foreign markets where many business opportunities remain untapped and to promote best practices, providing a deeper understanding of these types of partnerships. These projects show that EU and Japanese companies can complement each other and work together on bankable projects in these regions. The Centre identified and compiled these projects by monitoring EU and Japanese companies’ activities in Africa and Latin America (public sources), and by interviewing some of the companies involved in the projects. The Centre did not directly contribute to the realisation of these projects.
