Seminar on Profit-Driven PPP Participation Criteria

JPI (Japan Planning Institute) is hosting an informative seminar titled "Transitioning from Order-Taking to Business Creation: Criteria for Profit-Driven PPP Participation and Identifying Successful Projects" on March 19, 2026. This event will feature insights from Nobuyuki Takagi, Executive Consultant at Pacific Consultants Co., Ltd. and an expert in the field of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP).
