World Affairs Now - From San Francisco (Spring 2011)

<<Back to Main eLearning Page

Since the first successful session in 2005, Osaka University San Francisco Center has continued to engage Japanese students by bringing in Bay Area experts from a variety of fields to talk about their experiences. Students have a rare opportunity to hear first-hand accounts about how to build venture companies, conduct collaborative research and broker deals between multi-national corporations. They are also able to ask questions directly to guests about entrepreneurial working environments and cultural adjustments to living in another country.
