Why are CECI participants involved in so many events in Japan?
The reason is that CECI participants are taking their businesses to Japan with the help of the City of Osaka and JETRO Chicago and generating NEW BUSINESS. Even with slow economies, The U.S. and Japan have the largest gross domestic economies in the world. There are resources in Chicago to help you determine if your products may have a market in Osaka, Japan.
Some CECI participants are returning to the U.S. with immediate orders and product inquiries. Other participants are even investigating opening offices in Osaka and other cities in Japan.
In order to participate in the global economy, Chicago companies are taking the initiative to meet with International contacts in Chicago and around the world. A steady stream of CECI participants have been going to Japan as a result of presentations in Chicago. Even more Chicago businesses have expressed an interest in doing business with companies and agencies in Japan.
