The MIT Japan Program's series of conferences and symposia held in the U.S. or Japan brings together sponsor companies to address specific issues of concern and to share experiences. MISTI works closely with sponsors to select meeting topics and invites experts from MIT and industry to chair the sessions. The workshop format allows our sponsors to share their own experiences through short case studies and to network with other professionals.

For a list of upcoming meetings please check the Professional Programs upcoming events listings or contact Daniela Reichert dreichert@mit.edu at 617-258-8208.
