Doing Business In Japan

Japan Overview

Japan is the 3rd largest economy in the world. With GDP twice the size of the UK and GDP per person 10 times that of China, Japan remains the high-tech powerhouse economy of Asia - with the 2^nd highest spend worldwide on R&D, a hunger for IP and new trends, and an increasingly globalised outlook.

Exports from the UK are worth £8 billion a year and 450 British companies have operations in Japan. British companies are succeeding in Japan across a wide range of manufacturing, consumer goods, high tech and services sectors.
