The JASA Annual Celebration Dinner brings together leaders from business, government, economic development, education and culture, all of whom support JASA’s mission of furthering the Alabama-Japan relationship. With over 80 Japanese companies now doing business in Alabama, it is important that we continually address the issues that are important to those companies, as well as their employees and families. The incredible economic growth that Huntsville and north Alabama are experiencing, led in part by the Japanese automotive industry, made Huntsville the perfect setting for this year's JASA Celebration Dinner and Business Forum.
