Skiers, Snowboarders and Onsen Fans – the winter love story continues!

5th Inter-Chamber Ski and Snowboard Networking Retreat – open for registration

For the fifth time, members, friends and families of foreign chambers of commerce retreat for a friendly race and a great evening networking party in the Japanese Alps.

With more than 120 people attending, this 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. Families, partners and children are most welcome!

The race in the morning is a fun and easy giant slalom course, ready for children of any age, snow boarders and those who haven’t skied or snowboarded for quite some time.

Still not into skiing or snowboarding? Enjoy the fantastic and famous onsens of the Maruyama Onsen area – there are even tours to experience e.g. five different onsen a day!

Venue: the greatly modernized winter sport resort Ishiuchi-Maruyama, Niigata, conveniently located close to the Echigo-Yusawa shinkansen station.

Date: weekend of Jan. 25/26, 2020

Accommodation can be arranged freely by participants themselves, fitting their needs as families, groups of friends or single participants.

Note: the evening networking party will take place in the New Ohtani NASPA. There will also be a morning and evening shuttle bus from the hotel to the ski area and back.

If you want to book into the NASPA, register quickly and inform the Austrian Business Council (ABC), ABC still have a very few rooms available.

For any question, please don’t hesitate to contact the ABC (Mami Iwasaki or Arnold Ackerer at the Austrian Business Council, tokyo(at)advantageaustria.org)
