On 22 April, 2023, CJBI jointly organized Seminar on Entrepreneurship Development with Cambodia International Education Support Foundation (CIESF), Lotus Radio FM 100.5, and CJCC. In this event, we are honored to have the presence of H.E UENO Atsushi, the Ambassador of Japan in Cambodia, H.E Dr. MEY Kalyan, Chairman of CJBI, and H.E SHINOHARA Katsuhiro, Vice-Chairman of CJBI.

In this event, four sharing sessions were given by the guest speakers who are the successful entrepreneurs including Mr. IENG Sotheara, Adviser to the Sangha Committees of the Kingdom of Cambodia, Founder of Phum Rumdoul, Phum Sokharavy, Lotus Radio FM 100.5, and the President of CJBI, Mr. OKUBO Hideo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FORVAL Corporation, Founder and Chairperson of CIESF, Mrs. YIN Daravy, Co-Founder of Phum Rumdoul, and Mr. LIV Chhoung, CEO of Brown Coffee.

Meanwhile, Mr. OKUBO Hideo stressed the importance of 5 core values, especially moral authorities of leadership.
