On 24th of April the IJCC joined in our first event as a member of CLIC (Creative Linking of International Chambers), a loose organization of 12 smaller European Chambers of Commerce in Japan (Austrian, Belgian-Luxembourg, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Greek, Icelandic, Irish, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish and Swiss).

Many thanks to our guest speaker Alejandro Cabal, President of Tetra Pak Japan & Korea for sharing an engaging presentation on the strides made toward sustainability at Tetra Pak and insightful statistics on the food and beverage industry. We also took a few questions from the audience and then presented Mr. Cabal with a thank-you gift of a Rathbornes 1488 luxury travel candle generously provided by IJCC Corporate member ONODA Inc.

Attendees then freely mingled and networked while enjoying delicious vegan catering from Falafel Brothers and a selection of wines, beers and beverages kindly provided by the Belgian-Luxembourg, Spanish and Swedish Chambers.

A big thank you to SteelCase for hosting us at their beautiful showroom in Hiro-o and to all of the collaborating chambers who came together to organise a fantastic event. We are delighted to be a part of the CLIC community and look forward to our next CLIC event!
