Big Tech のシニア・エグゼクティブが、キャリアについて語ります！
Join us to hear about the career journeys of the distinguished Big Tech executives!
We will hold the “WCJ Career Talk” by inviting 3 distinguished Japan-based alumni with rich senior-level experiences (both past and current) at various technology companies including Amazon Japan, Apple TV Japan,
Google Japan, Salesforce Japan, Netflix Japan, and Oracle Japan. The panelists will talk about their career journey - how they started their career, how they transitioned into the next companies, and how they reached to the senior level positions. Each will also share with us the key lessons learned and how the education and the network of Wharton helped in advancing their career, followed by Q&A and a networking party.
Panelists:
Julian Lai-hung (WG99): Head, Apple TV Japan (formerly with Netflix)
Ko Takahashi (WG94): Managing Director, Head of Google Cloud Consulting (formerly with Salesforce and Oracle)
Kaz Watanabe (WAM15): Vice President, Amazon Japan (01/2008 - 02/2023)
