TOPICS

It’s a full programme, starting at lunchtime on Monday 11th March (allowing you time to arrive in Tokyo that morning, though most people will be there the day before), through to lunchtime on Thursday 14th (giving you time for your own follow up meetings). Most importantly, we have meetings organised with all our targets – visiting the top agencies there – Dentsu, Hakuhodo and ADK, the Olympic and Rugby organisers, leading production companies, a leading client, Shieshedo and Google – a whirlwind of learning about and connections with Japanese advertising.

 

WHY YOU SHOULD GO

Steve Davies has secured essentially a guided tour through one of the most magical, secret, hard to enter countries for advertising. The agenda is jam packed with vists and talks to the leading agencies and production companies plus there is plenty of time built into the schedule for your follow ups and one on one meetings with new contacts.

 

TIPS

Book Early to secure your place. If you can add a day or two on to your trip to explore Tokyo and also get to Kyoto, that is fully recommended

 

WHERE TO STAY

Official hotel or overspill
