[Call for Participants] Dentsu CXC Webinar: "U.S.-China Relations and Japan's Role After the U.S. and Japanese Elections: Is China Still the World's Most Attractive Investment Destination?" November 28

Dentsu CXC (China Crossover Center), a group promoting China business across the Dentsu Group, is recruiting participants for its webinar "U.S.-China Relations and Japan's Role After the U.S. and Japanese Elections: Is China Still the World's Most Attractive Investment Destination?" to be held on Thursday, November 28.

We live in a turbulent era often described as VUCA: Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity. Amidst Russia-Ukraine tensions, Middle East conflicts, the divide between democracy and authoritarianism, and geopolitical risks alongside environmental destruction from global warming, how will the new leaders of Japan and the US engage with China, and where is the world headed?

This webinar features Kiyoyuki Seguchi, an expert on U.S.-China relations and the Chinese economy, who will speak on the turbulent U.S.-China relationship and Japan's role. The talk session will delve deeper into the question: "Is China still a country Japanese companies should invest in?" To provide the latest insights, the entire 2-hour session will be live-streamed. Questions on the day are welcome.
