Upcoming Events

Want to improve the success and profitability of your business? We are hosting a COREBiz Sample Peer Advisory Board on April 4. This event is a great opportunity to benefit from the collective expertise of the Peer Advisory Board Members at no cost.

COREBiz Peer Advisory Boards are comprised of members who are business owners, CEOs or presidents. Boards meet once a month in a confidential “think tank” atmosphere. Building on their experience, the Board members can offer practical solutions to your problems - not just theories. 

On March 15, we will continue our CCCJ Speaker Series by welcoming the Dean of the McGill Japan MBA programme, Professor of Finance Isabelle Bajeux-Besnainou.

This event will be a lunchtime talk held at the Roppongi Hills Club from 12.00 to 14.00. The entry fee will include a delicious buffet-style lunch.

Seats are limited, so register soon!

Date: March 15 (Thursday)

Event Background

Since the beginning of the Trump administration in January 2017, Japanese companies have been closely following developments in North American infrastructure markets. Many seminars focusing on North American infrastructure have also been held, sponsored by JBIC, JETRO, law firms and others. However, although these seminars have nominally been focusing on "North America", in reality the focus has been heavily on the United States. This seminar aims to bring Canada back into the picture.

CCCJ Members are invited to a housewarming for the new CCCJ office in Shinbashi! This is a free event open to members. Snacks, Canadian wine and beer, and soft drinks will be provided. After 20:00, we will proceed to Brew La La in Shinbashi (2 min walk from new CCCJ office) to join the Hockey Night in Tokyo / Canadian University Alumni Mixer. For details, click HERE

In 2018, the participating chambers include the German, Swedish, Swiss, Norwegian and Belgium/Luxembourg chambers, and the main organizer Austrian Business Council and the Japan-Austria Society.

Ski, snow, fun, race, family and friends – the key words for the event are the same as usual!

We are pleased to have Mr. Carlos Leitão, Quebec's Minister of Finance, as our first speaker in 2018!
