The Japan Market Expansion Competition (JMEC) is a business training program in Japan designed to foster the development of foreign businesses (project clients) in Japan while strengthening the business skills of up-and-coming executives (participants). 

JMEC is supported by the IJCC and 17 other Chambers of Commerce in Japan and has been offering the program for the past 26 years.

This IJCC hosted JMEC information session allows both potential participants, human resource managers and project client companies the opportunity to find out more about the JMEC program, to ask questions and to speak with JMEC alumni. We highly recommend those interested in JMEC to attend this session. We will also host a Q&A session and then we will break into smaller Zoom rooms for business networking.

Speakers:

• Trond Varlid - Program Director of JMEC Business Training Program
• Dermot Killoran – Owner of Calderwood Images Inc.
• Aidan O’Neill - CEO at DOCOsoft
• Samuel Annesley - JMEC Alumni & Executive Director at Greenpeace Japan
