The EU-Japan Centre for Industrial Cooperation is
a unique venture between the European Commission (Directorate-General
for Enterprise & Industry) and the Japanese Ministry of Economy,
Trade and Industry (METI).
The Centre has been established as a
core non-profit organisation for fostering the cooperation envisaged
by the two authorities. Its main objective is to promote industrial cooperation between
European and Japanese companies.
|
Since its establishment in 1987,
the Centre has been serving its objective and the needs of business
people in both the EU and Japan through management
training programmes (Japan Industry Insight, Topical Missions),
student in-company
traineeships (Vulcanus), business
information services, seminars,
and support for the
annual EU-Japan Business Dialogue Round Table. It also manages
the Energy programme .
More than 1,500
alumni have participated in the training programmes, and the Centre's
activities are widely recognised as effective by both the EU and Japanese
authorities. In the ever-changing EU environment, the Centre tries
to meet its expectations as a bridge between European and Japanese
business people.

The Centre and its activities are funded by the Directorate-General for Enterprise & Industry of the European
Commission and the
Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan, as well
as generous donations from private corporations.
