Japan and 科罗拉多州: Economic Partners

The substantial investment Japan has made in the U.S. makes its one of our strongest trading partners.

Chief Executive Director Akira Kajita of the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) shared that there are currently 80+ Japanese companies operating in 科罗拉多州, JETRO支持, which helps enable Japanese companies to expand their businesses in the U.S. by assisting with outreach and relationship-building.

Kajita共享, “JETRO LA has had an increased focus on bettering the ties between Japan and 科罗拉多州’s business communities…Just as 科罗拉多州 businesses are making successful entries into Japan, the reciprocal is happening with Japanese companies here in 科罗拉多州.”

布莱恩Lewandowski, executive director of the 商业研究部 and organizer of the seminar, pointed out that in planning the seminar, “we worked closely with the Deputy Consulate General, Isamu Azechi, to ensure that we had Japanese and American representatives on the panel. It was phenomenal hearing about Japanese companies doing business in 科罗拉多州, and 科罗拉多州 companies doing business in Japan. Panelists shared stories about cultural experiences and economic opportunities.”

The discussion provided a great opportunity for community members to gain in-depth insight into international business relations in the state.
