Don't miss the chance to be part of the biggest annual American business event in Asia-Pacific, hosted this year in Tokyo by the ACCJ. The Asia-Pacific Council of American Chambers of Commerce 2012 U.S.-Asia Business Summit will draw some 300 delegates from over 20 countries, including senior representatives of American, Japanese and regional business and government, to the Prince Park Tower Hotel on March 1-2, 2012. With the support of our generous sponsors and participation from the over two dozen American Chambers in the Asia-Pacific region, this must-attend summit will showcase two days of programs exploring key issues affecting American business in the region. From growth strategy and entrepreneurship, to business continuity and emerging trade architecture including Trans-Pacific Partnership, this will be your chance to discuss critical topics with influential leaders and regional experts right here in Tokyo. The conference will also provide an excellent opportunity to network with leaders from around the region during meals, receptions and on tours. Regional senior commercial officers will also be available to provide tailored counseling to companies interested in specific markets.

Despite the difficult events of last year, now more than ever Japan is a great place to do business. Hosting this important summit here will further affirm that notion, and will emphasize that Japan will be an even better place as businesses and government policy makers work together to enhance Japan's role in the region.
