Why one person

You work directly with me, from the first conversation to the report afterwards. I have run businesses in Japan and the Netherlands myself, so I know what is at stake for both sides. No agency in between, and what you share stays confidential. NDA on request.

What clients say

We came away understanding each other far beyond the meeting itself. You gave everyone such attention that my team felt proud of their work. Thank you.

About me

Portrait of Misaki Kobayashi

I have lived in the Netherlands since 2006 and have built businesses in both countries, including a Tokyo import company that signed contracts with Japan’s major department stores. Today I interpret for government delegations and VIPs, and accompany Japanese companies to their meetings with European partners.
