Whether your company has an international presence, has contracts with foreign firms, or simply has a multi-cultural staff, our intercultural communication services can help you reach your company's goals. ■　Liaison Services We serve as a liaison between culturally different organizations, facilitating communication and furthering the goals of the partnership, from buyer/seller relationships to joint ventures. ■　Market Entry Services We help you set up your operations in Japan. We assist with setting up an office, hiring and training local staff and getting your sales efforts started. 　 　 ■　Representation Services We represent foreign companies in Japan, providing a full range of sales and marketing services to further your company's goals in the market without the expense of opening a Japan branch.
