June 2020 Coffee & Cocktails
“Current Economic Developments: A Conversation with Ryotaro Tashiro”
Join us Thursday, June 25, 2020 at 7pm EST (8am JST) for a virtual business conversation with Ryotaro Tashiro, Regional Economic Advisor at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. Presented by the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia, in partnership with Venture Cafe Philadelphia. Part of JASGP’s ongoing Coffee & Cocktails series, Tashiro will discuss current economic developments in light of recent uncertainty, the business outlook for the region, and what this might mean for U.S. businesses that have relationships with Japan as well as Japanese businesses that operate in the U.S.
Tashiro is responsible for conducting research on current regional economic issues in the Federal Reserve’s Third District and informing external audiences on national and regional economic conditions, monetary policy, and the role of the Federal Reserve in the economy. Prior to joining the Bank in June 2016, Tashiro was a business analyst for Bloomberg, where he was responsible for conducting research on issues related to equity data quality.
Coffee & Cocktails is an online conversation series that was inaugurated in May and is designed to create people-to-people connections in support of business and culture in Japan and Philadelphia. These events are free and open to all. The series is held on Zoom on the last Thursday each month. Participants from Japan and the U.S. are welcome, and questions may be asked in either Japanese or English. We ask participants to consider making a donation to the Japan America Society of Greater Philadelphia to help us develop and provide quality programming like this in the future.
Webinar information will be provided before the event.
