8th Inter-Chamber Ski & Snowboard Weekend

When winter is drawing near, so is our annual winter networking event! The 8th edition of the Inter-Chamber Ski and Snowboard Weekend will bring members, friends, and families of foreign chambers of commerce to a new yet familiar location: the Okushiga Kogen Ski Resort, in Nagano.

With around 100 participants, the Inter-Chamber Ski and Snowboard Weekend 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. The event is open to all winter sports enthusiasts. Members and non-members, your family, friends, business partners etc., everyone is welcome!

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.
