Dear Friends of the EBC,<\/p>\n

Last month, the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement<\/strong> (EPA) celebrated its second year of implementation. On this occasion, a survey has been launched<\/strong><\/a> to learn from the relevant operators about the impact of the agreement on their business in Japan. Do not hesitate to give your feedback on this important instrument aimed at facilitating business!<\/p>\n

As you know, the Tokyo Olympics are getting closer. An Austrian company is currently building a group of hospitality houses for the Games in the Toyosu Nations Village. The Austrian Business Council<\/strong> communicates that, due to a withdrawal, one of these houses or parts of it would be available for use by a National Olympic Committee or by companies, official sponsors of the games or not (see details below<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Finally, we are pleased to relay two webinars<\/strong> organised by:
\n1\/ <\/strong>JETRO<\/strong>, on \u201cRegional Business Opportunities in Japan\u201d<\/a> for foreign companies in Sendai and Kitakyushu;
\n2\/ MOFA<\/strong>, on \u201cAchieving Greater Investments in the Digital Era\u201d<\/a> focused on how to further expand investment in the field of digital innovation.<\/p>\n

Enjoy your reading!<\/p>\n

We hope you stay positive and healthy during this difficult time.<\/p>\n

The purpose of this Survey is for the EU to collect feedback on the impact of the EPA on EU businesses as well as to gather information on existing market access challenges that EU companies face when entering the Japanese market. The EU will use the results of this survey to improve the business climate for EU companies operating in Japan.

Optimism towards having the Games this year in summer is gathering speed but you might see few of the athletes actually being able to participate in events or gatherings over the town. Very likely their presence will be limited to the sports arenas and the Olympic area in Toyosu. One of the largest areas for hospitality houses in company presentations in the Toyosu area, the so-called The Nations\u2019 Village<\/a>, is offering an additional space (house) for interested companies, organizations or countries.<\/p>\n

The attached presentation provides a short overview of The Nations\u2019 Village, the available space and the company (\u201cHochsitz\u201d) that built and owns the houses in The Nations\u2019 Village, including their references from former major sport events like the Olympic Games Sochi 2014, Rio 2016, Pyeongchang 2018, America\u2019s Cup 2017 e.a.<\/p>\n

If interested in more details or talking directly to the building company, please contact Mr. Bernd Loidl (English, German) at: bernd.loidl@hochsitz.at<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/p>\n\n\n

JETRO will hold an online seminar inviting speakers from academic field, Tohoku University and National Institute of Technology, Kitakyushu College focusing on the issue of Japanese aging society. As Japan’s population ages, startups are emerging to improve the efficiency of healthcare, automation, and mobility. And the need for technologies and services from these companies, including foreign companies, is growing.<\/p>\n

In this seminar, the following two cases will be discussed: Sendai City is working on the extension of healthy lifespan for the elderly, and Kitakyushu City is focusing on integration of Industry 4.0 at the manufacturing site. These cases will provide hints for foreign companies on how to expand business in Japan.<\/p>\n
