Japan Is The Best Place For A Foreigner To Start A Business
Which is the best place in the world to start a new business?
According to Ejovi Nuwere, it’s right here in Japan!
And that is especially true if you are a Johnny Foreigner.
Japan is smaller in surface area than California, but has 127 million
consumers and over four million companies. Lots of those companies are
busy importing gear from all over the world. Almost half a billion dollars of goods
are imported every year.
Of course, the Japanese are also keen on modern technology, with nearly 90 million hooked up to the Internet and over 100 million mobile phone users.
So, whether you want to export to Japan from your country, or whether you are an ex-pat living in Japan, there are lots of opportunities for you if you know - and here is the rub - how to do business with the Japanese.
For those of us foreigners who live in Japan, one of the keys is to take advantage of the fact that we ARE DIFFERENT from our hosts. Accepting that obvious fact and working with it - taking advantage of our differences - can give foreigners a great business advantage, or so argues Terrie Lloyd in the video below, talking to Ejovi Nuwere manager of Japan Jump Start.
