JASA OverviewThe JASA Overview provides insight into JASA's history, governance,
structure, and events, as well as the history and current state of
Japanese business development in Alabama. Our Vision Be the premier Japan-America Society in the U.S. that strengthens harmonious cooperation and understanding between the cultures of Japan and Alabama by providing exceptional and value-based experiences for JASA stakeholders in business, culture, education, and governmental affairs. Our History JASA was established in 1989 by a small group of individuals who recognized that much more than marketing and business advantages would be required for Alabama to be successful in recruiting Japanese companies. They knew that Alabama should understand and embrace not only Japanese business concepts and expectations but also cultural and educational issues. JASA is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit member-based organization, and virtually all the original founding member organizations are still active in JASA today. Since its inception, JASA’s primary mission has not changed, and its programs and events have always connected well with people and places throughout Alabama. |
