Business seminar x baseball game held at Esconfield HOKKAIDO We believe that PR can contribute to the growth of local businesses and revitalize the local economy by expanding sales channels through information dissemination and creating new fans through careful communication. This time, PR from 2024
On the occasion of our appointment as the official sponsor of the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, TIMES will hold a special event for people who want to improve their local area, so that they can experience the potential of PR.
PR from 2024
TIMES has become the official sponsor of the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. We will be holding a public relations seminar using the venue of S-Confield HOKKAIDO, the team’s home base, to provide Hokkaido businesses with content that will help them learn more about PR and make them want to make more use of it.
After the seminar, there will be a special seat provided by PR TIMES called “Batter’s Eye Lounge by PR”.
While watching the match on “TIMES”, participants will have a networking session with each other. We aim to be a place where participants can support local teams together and make friends with local businesses that will boost the local economy. We are looking forward to the interaction that will occur as we support the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters together, as they are a team that values the local community and is loved by the local community.
We are looking for people to join this event as an opportunity to wish for the victory of the local Hokkaido professional baseball team, the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters, and to use public relations to find friends who can enjoy the development of the region.
I hear people complain that compared to other industries, there are fewer people in public relations who can feel free to talk to them, such as not having as many people as other departments and not having a boss who can teach them. Through this event, we hope that
participating businesses will have more opportunities to share know-how, make friends with whom they can discuss their concerns, and put more PR into practice in their business activities.
The first lecture guest on June 28th will be Taizo Sugimura. In Hokkaido, in addition to serving as an MC for economic programs, he is also producing the Asahikawa Hare Yatai Village, a commercial facility that enlivens his hometown of Asahikawa. He is also an investor who has released multiple books. Mr. Sugimura talks about the importance of the ability to communicate, something that he feels is common to all the managers he has seen.
