Half- day Course “How to Sell in Japan” on 24 April 2020

29 February 2020

OBM, in association with the Japan Desk of Thames Valley Chamber of Commerce is offering a half-day course “How to sell in Japan” on the 24th April 2020.  This course is designed for British companies who are considering expanding their business to Japan, or who are already trading in/with Japan and would like to improve their business.

According to figures from the Japanese trade association, JETRO(1) , the net inflow of inward foreign direct investment (balance of payments basis, net) from the UK to Japan was 487.6 billion yen (3.42 billion pounds) in 2018, the largest among European countries and the second largest in the world, after the USA. 

With these facts in mind, if you are a business with an international vision, then you may want to consider the opportunities offered by doing business in Japan.  A vital first step is to understand the differences in business culture and decision-making process between the two countries, which will impact your business planning and behaviour.
