The 5th installment in the Canada Means Business speaker series

TJCS Business Committee would like to report a very successful event held on June 29, 2011 with Mr.Shigeru Hayakawa from Toyota Motor Corporation at WINC Aichi.

A classroom setting with a presenter at the front and attendees seated at desks.  A Canadian flag is displayed. A headshot is inset.

We thank you for all your interest and attendance. For those who were not able to attend this time, we look forward to seeing you at the next speech event!

Participants' Comments:

It was a very interesting topic, which was TOYOTA's future prospects.

It's a wonderful event, Thank you!.

I hope to join the next event too.

Total cooperation in North American factories was impressive.

Wish we could've had a longer question-and-answer session.

It was wonderful to see a full house.

Thanks again for attending and for assisting in a successful event.

We are very excited about upcoming events in our CMB speaking events.
