Greetings from the President of the AAJ

"Dear Colleagues and Francophile Guests,
The AAJ was established in August 2020.
Its purpose is to create a new bond between lawyers from France and Japan while sharing common values. Amongst its various activities such as cross-border online conferences and convivial get-togethers, the AAJ organizes events opened to all its members and guests aiming at tightening the relations between the two countries, sharing academic knowledge and creating business opportunities.
This is the goal of the AAJ Legal Summit 2023, the first main international gathering organized in Japan by the association.
Register now to play your part in the French - Japanese legal community !"
