Japan Business Network (JBN) - Canada

We guide Japanese companies to success.

The Canadian economy is unique among developed nations with its strong focus on natural resources. Resources are an increasingly precious commodity for countries like Japan that do not have a viable domestic supply. Japanese companies will need a strong globalisation partner to successfully counter these types of competitive threats.

PwC Canada has many Japanese-speaking professionals all the way up to partner level across Canada..With over 100 years of experience serving international companies, PwC Canada offers a full spectrum of support to Japanese businesses.
