Global Venture Forum Applications Due

June 04, 1999

The Global Venture Forum is a business development event sponsored by the Osaka Chamber of Commerce to help Japanese and foreign firms find Japanese partners for investment, trade, distribution, and global business.

Since the Global Venture Forum started in 1995, 44 percent of the participants have found business partners.

Approximately 35 firms will be selected to join 15 Japanese businesses as presenters. Selected firms pay a registration fee of $950 which covers meals, one-night hotel accommodations, all AV equipment, a professional interpreter for two days, simultaneous translation, and translated summaries distributed to Japanese organizations, media and businesses.

There is no cost to submit an application to present. Two-page applications are due by June 15.

Washington International Business Ventures (WIBV) is serving as the North American office for the Global Venture Forum. To apply or for more information, visit the WIBV website at http://www.wibv.com or contact Peter Drabble at (202) 467-4403.
