Are you finding yourself in a “whack-a-mole” situation with the numerous EU sustainability regulations that continue to emerge and take effect?

For Japanese companies operating within global supply chains, determining which of the many EU rules actually apply has become increasingly difficult.

This session is designed to help you identify the regulatory entry points relevant to your business.

The webinar starts with the presentation in Japanese by Shota Baba (30min), followed by the presentation in English by Laurence Van Eyken (30min).

We will explore and sensitize you to the following regulation:
