In a harmonious blend of global aspirations and local talent, the Japan External Trade Organisation (JETRO) orchestrated an enlightening event in Bengaluru—the heart of India’s tech hub.

University Connect, as it was aptly named, aimed to bridge the gap between Japanese businesses hungry for Indian expertise and Karnataka’s esteemed colleges.

The result was a promising exchange of ideas, opportunities, and a pathway for Indian students to explore careers in Japan.

The Gathering of Minds

On August 26, representatives from ten Japanese companies and seven Indian institutions converged at University Connect. Their mission: to foster connections that transcend borders. Here are the key highlights:

Japanese Business Appetite: The allure of India’s talent pool has not escaped Japanese corporations. From established giants to nimble startups, these firms seek fresh perspectives and skilled minds. University Connect provided them with a direct channel to tap into Karnataka’s academic reservoir.

Karnataka’s Best Universities Speak Up: Seven of Karnataka’s premier universities stepped into the spotlight. With pride and purpose, they presented their institutions, academic programs, placement processes, and success stories. These universities—often incubators of brilliance—were ready to showcase their graduates’ potential.

Internships and Full-Time Roles: The Japanese companies in attendance weren’t merely window-shopping. They were keen on employing Indian students for both internships and full-time positions. The exchange of viewpoints was more than anticipated, sparking excitement and curiosity.
