Join us live as we recognize Alabama's 2019 New and Expanding Japanese Companies. This awards presentation has been part of JASA's Annual Dinner for many years. While we have sought to preserve the safety and health of our members by choosing not to have an in-person Annual Dinner program this year, we would like to recognize these companies with a special virtual showcase.

JASA will welcome two special guests with remarks during the presentation from Alabama Secretary of Commerce Greg Canfield and The Honorable Kazuyuki Takeuchi, Consul General of Japan in Atlanta. 

Please view an agenda and list of companies below. The Alabama Department of Commerce's 2019 New and Expanding Industry Report is available here.

This program is brought to you in partnership with the Alabama Department of Commerce and Alabama Power Company. We thank them for their contributions to this event!
