From the EBC

 
Dear Friends of the EBC,

The EBC continues its high-level meetings in Japanese ministries to report them problems encountered by EU businesses due to the entry ban restrictions. We encourage European companies facing such hardship to contact us.

This week, we give you the opportunity to think ahead with :

  • A survey on EU-Japan Business Cooperation in Japan and Third Markets: Circular Economy and Digital Economy launched by the EU-Japan Centre for Industrial Cooperation
  • A EuroBiz article on the various stimulus packages voted in the EU and in Japan.

We wish you a good reading and hope you stay positive and healthy during this difficult time.

EBC Chief Operating Officer
