Background: Why do we need new guidelines for global expansion now?

As the domestic market matures and global competition intensifies, many Japanese companies are looking overseas to find new avenues for sustainable growth. However, they often face challenges such as, "I don't know where to start," or "I don't have a reliable local partner.

This conference will be held with the aim of bridging knowledge, technology, and human resources across countries and regions, utilizing the global network and knowledge that LIVERNESS has cultivated over the years. From those who are planning to expand their business overseas to those who have already developed their business, we will provide a place where you can gain new insights that will lead you to your next action.
