Join us in Tokyo for an exclusive event hosted by ESSEC Executive Education.
Masterclass: Beyond Superpowers: How Japan Makes Its Voice Count Globally

There are only three superpowers today: the United States, Russia and China. Two of them have abandoned the rules-based mechanism in promoting their interests and the third might do the same.

- Led by Prof. Cedomir Nestorovic, Co-Academic Director of the ESSEC Institute Geopolitics & Business.

- Understand the limitations of traditional innovation in addressing today's challenges.
