7th Inter-Chamber Ski Race

Skiers, Snowboarders, and Onsen Fans – Japan is open again and so is our winter networking event for 2023! The 7th edition of our ski race will bring members, friends, and families of foreign chambers of commerce back to the Lotte Arai Resort, near Myoko City, Niigata.

With around 120 people attending, the Inter-Chamber Ski Race is probably the largest inter-chamber weekend retreat in Japan. While organized by foreign chambers in Japan, half the attendees are usually Japanese, the other half are foreign nationals. Families, partners, and children are most welcome too! The race will be a “best of two runs” easy-to-ski giant slalom for both skiers and snowboarders.
We are also inviting companies to become sponsors of this event! Either as main sponsor for the event / networking evening or for sponsoring raffle prizes. Please email us at info@sccij.jp for details.
