Japan Website Renewal:We are happy to announce the release of our updated 1818 Society Japan website https://www.1818societyjapan.com/ .  Working with our original web designer, we have made some structural changes and updated the contents. (Due to our limited resources, most of the contents are in Japanese only)

 

Member Only Page: The new website has a specific page which only Japan chapter members can access and will be used to list members' publications. This member page should not contain any sensitive information, including the membership roster which should continue to only be sent to members via email.  Currently the page is being displayed on a trial basis, but we hope that with testing the page will become a useful communication tool among our members.  If you wish to refer to the page, please contact 1818societyjapan@gmail.com.  

 

New Staff Member: Mr. Riki Kojima, who holds an executive management position at  TEPCO Renewal Power Co. has kindly accepted responsibilities to organize the program at seminars and annual meetings.  The future programs should address more current topics and aim to attract society members of both younger generations as well as seniors.   If you have any topics to suggest please send ideas and suggestions to 1818societyjapan@gmail.com
