Business expansion to overseas, inbound business or business for foreigners are the fields with a lot of obstacles to many Japanese companies. One of the reasons is that it is difficult to access the right personnel that is necessary for doing business abroad or for foreigners. Particularly, in terms of foreifner employement, recruitment of international students has been active in the last ten years, but there are many problems as well. For example, intense competition in major companies, scarce local network of exchange students or difficulty to find talents.
