Company presentations of participants

In Japan we will visit 8 companies, 3 universities and the Dutch Embassy. To prepare ourselves for the visits as good as we can, the participants, who are divided into groups, will give the rest a presentation. Every group is gathering information about 2 visits. They will describe the history in short and show an organizational chart. Also the core competenties of the business will be sort out and linked with the Japanese culture. They will perform a small benchmark with companies in the Netherlands and Europe. This way we can get acquainted with the different businesses and we know what parts of the company to focuss on during our stay in Japan. This meeting takes place on June the 3rd in the faculty of 3Me.
