Chongqing - After WWII, Japanese companies began their long journey of going global. From rebuilding after the war, to adjusting strategies during trade tensions, and transforming post-economic bubble, they’ve built a unique path of international expansion. In many ways, their experience mirrors what Chinese companies are facing today.
Bridging News recently interviewed Kenya Yoshiura, Managing Executive Officer of Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and President of Mizuho Bank (China), Ltd., who believes that China’s globalizing companies can learn much from Japan’s experience. Studying how Japanese firms successfully entered global markets could provide valuable insights.
