A delegation comprising senior government officials and businessmen from Kochi Prefecture, Japan visited Chennai to explore potential tie-ups in Tamil Nadu.
The delegation is in Chennai to build business to business and people to people relationship and the idea is to get a proper perception on both sides, Taga Masayuki, Consul General of Japan, Chennai, said at a business networking meeting organised by the Indo-Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Hamda Kenji, Deputy Director General, Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Labor, Kochi Prefectural Government said the Kochi Prefecture is along the coast of island of Shikoku. Given the advantage of abundant water, it has a presence of agriculture and marine based industries, he said. “Unfortunately, we may not have a presence of a big company like Toyota. But we have companies which have niche technology,” Mr. Kenji said.
