Date&Time: 28 May. (Thu.) 2015, 15:00-16:30
Venue: Lecture room1 (3F), Medical Education & Library Building
Summary:
Interested in global businesses or not, knowing the legal mindset diversity among the nations is quite important. Especially in Japan, within its rather confined environment, sharing common sense and customs could cause people to underestimate the significance of contract on businesses, especially in communal-trust-based local society.
Global trading requires utmost care on making any kind of agreement with a foreign nation, with linguistic, cultural, religious, and commercial custom disparity, in order to avoid potential risks.
The seminar provides valuable knowledge for successful global businesses and cross-cultural understanding.
