[Call for Participants] Lecture by Mr. Kiyoyuki Seguchi: "The Future of U.S.-China Relations and Japan's Role: The Path Forward for Japanese Companies in 2022" - November 26

Dentsu Group's China business cross-functional organization, Dentsu CXC (China Crossover Center), is recruiting participants for its webinar "The Future of U.S.-China Relations and Japan's Role," featuring Mr. Kiyoyuki Seguchi, an expert on Japan-U.S. relations and the Chinese economy, to be held on November 26.

The ongoing turmoil in U.S.-China relations extends beyond economics, evolving into ideological and security issues that engulf the entire world. Next year marks a pivotal juncture for both nations, with key events looming: the U.S. midterm elections, the Beijing Winter Olympics, and the Chinese Communist Party Congress. Meanwhile, Japan faces the difficult task of navigating its relationships with both the U.S. and China, particularly regarding issues like China and Taiwan's TPP accession and responses to economic and security challenges. Japanese companies must also closely monitor the Chinese government's intervention in private enterprises, the Evergrande Group crisis, and the trajectory of China's Personal Information Protection Law.

Mr. Seguchi will explain how to interpret these numerous challenges and translate them into action.
