JAPANESE BUSINESS COUNCIL

Agreement with JETRO!		Starting your Business
JBC has made an agreement with JETRO (Tokyo, Japan) to cooperate their TTPP system. The TTPP (Trade Tie-up Promotion Program) is the JETRO's huge database system which supports your search for an international business partner via the Internet. User registration, viewing and registering proposals are all free of charge. Although there are many businesses who want to deal with Japan, this useful system is not well-known therefore not used effectively. This is why we decided to promote it within Australia with taking advantage of our search engine optimisation strength. It is beneficial for us that we can utilise world-wide network without establishing a huge database by ourselves. User registration, viewing and registering proposals are all free of charge, so please register now!		Here is the comprehensive government information site to start your business. Business Entry Point Contents Registering a business Licences and permits Superannuation Taxation Grants and financial assistance Employing staff etc.
