SUMMARY:2015 Sept C8 - Omni Channel Increasing Response In Retailing (Venue Change)

SUMMARY:2015 September C20 – Getting Inspiration From Bricks
DESCRIPTION:Japan is a market that to many foreign companies remains an enigma and where one of the key learnings seems to be that all market segments are saturated and dominated by huge local players. The toy market is not any different and yet a small company from an even smaller country far up in the northernmost part of Europe is trying to swim against the current and prove that even if a market is not growing you can successfully grow a global brand using global tools. \nWhat is the story behind the growth of the LEGO brand in this market and are there any learnings for companies outside the toy business? LEGO Japan’s CEO Steen Lauge Kokkenborg will be answering questions as well as sharing insights\, learnings and perspectives from his experience with the LEGO Brand in the Japanese market.  Prior to Japan\, Steen ran Lego’s successful Korea organization. \nAfter the Sept CI meeting\, you will leave the luncheon regretting you ever left your toys on your way to success.

SUMMARY:2015 Fall CEO Insights Forum (CIF)
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce the semi-annual CEO Insights Forum (CIF) on 30 September from 7PM.  The CIF is the highest level regular gathering of c-suite executives in Japan.  This is the second and final CIF for 2015.  We will have two excellent speakers\, great food\, and insightful discussions. We’ll have brief presentations followed by Q&A so you can ask the experts. The evening will be mostly a chance for you to interact with other market leaders like yourself.\n\nRegister HERE\nThe speakers are Mr. Nicholas Benes and Mr. Martin Schultz.  The topics planned are- \nNicholas Benes\, Representative Director\, The Board Director Training Institute of Japan will speak on \n“Brave New World: How The World Has Changed Radically Since 1990. The Four Accelerating Global Trends That You Can’t Afford To Ignore As A CEO” \nJapan is not exactly known for transparency in its corporate governance.  With pressure from the outside\, Japan is being forced to internationalize and be more accountable globally.  Nick brings decades of experience to the CIF as he runs a popular organization that provides c-level training in governance to help you understand the importance of dealing with digital client data\, changing legal environment\, and building corporate boards that actually make firms more productive.\n\nYou can find out more about Mr. Benes here.  In addition\,\n\nMr. Martin Schulz\, Senior Research Fellow\, Fujitsu Research Institute will present on-\nJapan and Asia in the “New Normal” (of much lower growth and increasing competition)\n\nGrowth rates have come down in Japan and much of the mature world to bare-productivity levels of around 1%. In emerging Asia\, at the same time\, “middle income traps” are challenging outmoded development models and government control. The result is a race for success in overseas markets and productivity-oriented governance improvements – with geopolitical tensions as a sideshow. For companies\, the “new normal” means tougher export competition at the base but tremendous opportunities for top products and services that do things smarter and in a more globally connected way.\n\nMore about Mr. Schulz here.\n\nCIF brings together bosses of fashion\, industrial\, consumer products\, high tech\, media\, hospitality\, real estate\, and other areas under one roof.  We look forward to seeing you at the Fall event.  Please sign-up online or if you questions\, please have your PA contact Ms. Waijo (in Japanese) at 03-4550-6500.\n\n\nDate- \nWednesday\, 30 September 2015 700PM-830PM (Soft closing with drinks until 930)\nVenue-   \nOakwood Premier- 1F \nTokyo Midtown Complex\n9-7-4 Akasaka\nMinato-ku\, Tokyo\, 107-0052 Japan \nCost- 8\,500 yen \nRegister HERE \n(**For expediency\, we’d like to do all bookings online.  If you don’t have a Paypal registered Credit Card\, please just select “check” so we can get you registered and AINEO Corporation email you a paper invoice.  Pay online or request invoice in advance from AINEO Corporation.  Thank you!)
