SUMMARY:2016 Aug G3 - How A CEO Can Master The Art Of Acquisition
DESCRIPTION:In business\, when we think of “acquisition” immediately the image of a large firm buying a smaller firm to get into a national market\, buy market share\, or even kill potential competition.  In the August CEO Insights\, we will be talking about when it is right to buy a company\, and when it is best to hold steady.   \nWe will be expanding our definition of acquisition to incorporate the view of the c-level. Acquiring new talent is a huge challenge for every firm but there are many other areas.  In a start up business\, the three Ps are pricing (costs)\, productivity\, and planning.  As we grow we must know how to speed our processes both internally and externally. A healthy business is a living growing organization. \nIn the August CEO Insights luncheon\, our discussion will center on acquisition from many angles.  We’ll discuss some actual examples of some great decisions (and likely see some things that didn’t go so well as we expected).

SUMMARY:2016 August C8- Is It Too Late For Casinos And The Gaming Industry In Japan?
DESCRIPTION:Earlier this year\, once again\, Japan’s LDP decided not to seek passage of a bill to legalize casino operations in Japan. The bill would lift the ban on casino operations and development. This was yet another disappointment in a long line of setbacks for those who would like to see casinos in Japan as a boost to tourism and local economies. \nIntegrated Resorts were meant to be an important part of PM Abe’s development model\, but now some people say Japan has missed the boat on another regional opportunity. The question now is whether developer and operators that were interested have thrown in the towel? Or is the market opportunity too large to abandon\, with those that know Japan playing the long (waiting) game? \nKiyoshi Nishijima has spent a good deal of his time involved with major hospitality projects in the region\, as well as various government entities. 10 years ago he founded CLC and three years later formed the Japan Gaming Development Organization (JGDO) for the purpose of representing casino/gaming interests in Japan as a lobbying organization.  Since then he has become a legal representative of Melco Crown Entertainment with respect its interests in Japan. Kiyoshi will be able to give us good insight into where the casino bill is headed\, whether indeed Japan has lost the opportunity and perhaps some other interesting stories from the work he has done so far to push this casino bill through in Japan.

SUMMARY:2016 Aug C20 -  Death Or Taxes\, We Choose The Latter - Understanding Japan Inheritance Taxation
DESCRIPTION:Everyone knows the joke about the two things we must do in life\, pay taxes and die someday.  The good thing about paying a lot of tax is that can generally indicate you are doing well as a CEO.  If you’ve been running any size organization for any amount of time\, you will know that understanding taxation is something that can make or break your business.  \nIn the August CEO Insights luncheon we will welcome Mr. Nasir Majid who is a Partner running the International Assignment Services (IAS) practice in Tokyo\, Japan for PwC.  The lunch will be regarding taxation on the personal level.  We plan to focus on group discussion and will cover the below areas-  \n•	Tips & tricks for saving money on income tax\n•	How to more effectively pass the fruit of your labor on to the next family generation\n•	Understanding Japan Estate tax and the new Exit tax \nJoin us for a very engaging CI luncheon.  You will leave the meeting with more than you left and have more connections to reinforce that.
