About this event

Countries around the world are coming up with bold plans to become carbon-neutral, and Japan is no exception. But Japan's goals are particularly ambitious since the country is currently dependent on fossil fuels. How exactly will Japan try to achieve its goals, and what does that mean for Japanese companies? How competitive could Japanese companies be in becoming leaders of green technology? What are the potential implications of the rising U.S.-China tensions? Join journalists from The Wall Street Journal, professors from The School of International Corporate Strategy, Hitotsubashi University Business School (Hitotsubashi ICS), and Masakazu Toyoda, the Special Advisor of the Institute of Energy Economics Japan in a timely conversation about Japan's position in the global competition for carbon reduction. This event is produced by Hitotsubashi ICS.
