Since the end of May, students have participated in two in-person sessions and two online sessions, working together in multicultural teams throughout the program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supported by company mentors, five groups of students tackled the challenging theme of the food service industry and the employment of highly skilled international talent - a topic that they had never considered from either a customer\u2019s perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the final presentations, each team shared the solutions they had refined over the past two months through discussion, collaboration, and problem-solving. The president of the Hiro Food Service praised the students' efforts, commenting, \u201cThe value lies in the process of thinking itself. Every idea was creative and inspiring.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/osip.jp\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/IMG_6834-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Working closely in diverse teams, students learned to overcome differences, exchange ideas, and grow together.
