As part of the the Department of Business & Trade's (DBT) International Trade Week in the autumn of 2024, Steve and guest Matthew Kyle, hosted a live version of the podcast with an added Q&A. We have scrubbed up the recording and tagged on a little extra intro from Steve, and here it is for you!
Matt Kyle, CCO at WeConnect Japan, has years of experience supporting businesses set themselves up and build a team in Japan. He shares with us his insights on doing business in Japan as well as joining Steve to answer some questions from the live webinar audience.
