The Japan Market Expansion Program (JMEC) is designed to foster the development of foreign business in Japan—while strengthening the skills of young business professionals through a business plan competition. The program is now entering its 21st year.

The program brings together highly-motivated participants willing to challenge themselves with companies who want to enter or expand in Japan.

JMEC participants are English-speaking individuals—Japanese and foreign nationals—living and working in Japan, who have a strong interest in improving their business skills, broadening their business network and achieving higher career and personal goals.
