Tokyo (VNA) – Representatives of Japanese and Vietnamese businesses exchanged experience and sought cooperation opportunities at a workshop held in Tokyo on November 9 by the Foreign Trade University Alumni Association in Japan (FAJ).

Participating enterprises, including non-FAJ members, are operating in diverse spheres, including trade, human resources, real estate, and IT.

Keynote speakers, who are Japanese and Vietnamese managers and economic experts, shared insights into specific matters regarding tax, insurance capital, advertisement, multinational management, and Vietnam’s offshore industry amidst the rise of artificial intelligence (AI).

The workshop was the second event of its kind hosted by the association within its enterprise connectivity programme, aimed at enabling Vietnamese and Japanese companies to explore each other’s potential, paving the way for mutually beneficial collaboration, said FAJ Vice President Doan Thu Quynh.

Founded in 2014, the association’s mission extends beyond connecting FTU alumni to supporting the Vietnamese community in Japan, she said.

Present at the event, Kiyotaka Miyazaki, head of Suruga Bank’s Shinjuku branch, said the workshop offered a great chance for him to meet Vietnamese businesspeople in Japan, noting his belief that Vietnam-Japan economic ties will grow further in the time ahead./.
