OSIP Community Network Forum 2025 Held
On Tuesday, January 27, 2026, the OSIP Community Network Forum 2025 was held at the InterContinental Hotel Osaka.
The forum was organized to share the outcomes of OSIP initiatives implemented in fiscal year 2025 and to encourage dialogue among a wide range of stakeholders. Through these exchanges, participants discussed future directions and explored opportunities for collaboration in the coming year.
During the forum, faculty members responsible for the OSIP project presented an overview of the programs carried out in FY2025, along with plans for FY2026. The forum also featured presentations by six international students who had completed internships with IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group), where they shared their experiences and learning outcomes.
In addition, a World Café–style dialogue session was conducted, bringing together participants from universities, companies, and government agencies. Through discussions that crossed institutional and professional boundaries, participants exchanged ideas and shared practical perspectives on collaboration, focusing on identifying common ground and building effective partnerships.
Building on the connections formed through this forum, OSIP will continue to work with diverse stakeholders to further advance and develop its initiatives.
