    KYOTO callingBy Cassidy Hazelbaker Today Tokyo is Japan’s vibrant and bustling capital, but for more than one thousand years, Kyoto was the 174 country’s imperial capital. The city remains the cultural 175 heart of contemporary Japan, and its residents are fiercely proud of their city’s history and traditions. Cassidy Hazelbaker reports.

  • City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous
    City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous What’s Your City’s Claim to Fame? By Jeff Coy, ISHC Paris was the world’s most-visited city in 2010 with 15.1 million international arrivals, according to the World Tourism Organization, followed by London and New York City. What’s Paris got that your city hasn’t got? Is it the nickname the City of Love? Is it the slogan Liberty Started Here or the idea that Life is an Art with images of famous artists like Monet, Modigliani, Dali, da Vinci, Picasso, Braque and Klee? Is it the Cole Porter song, I Love Paris, sung by Frank Sinatra? Is it the movie American in Paris? Is it the fact that Paris has numerous architectural icons that sum up the city’s identity and image --- the Eiffel Tower, Arch of Triumph, Notre Dame Cathedral, Moulin Rouge and Palace of Versailles? Do cities need icons, songs, slogans and nicknames to become famous? Or do famous cities simply attract more attention from architects, artists, wordsmiths and ad agencies? Certainly, having an architectural icon, such as the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889, put Paris on the world map. But all these other things were added to make the identity and image. As a result, international tourists spent $46.3 billion in France in 2010. What’s your city’s claim to fame? Does it have an architectural icon? World’s Most Famous City Icons Beyond nicknames, slogans and songs, some cities are fortunate to have an architectural icon that is immediately recognized by almost everyone worldwide.

    1 53rd ERSA Congress, 27-31 August 2013, Palermo Regional Integration: Europe, the Mediterranean and the World Economy Keynote Lecture Regional Integration and Cultures in the Age of Knowledge Creation－The Story of the Tower of Babel Revisited－ Masahisa Fujita Konan University / Kyoto University / RIETI Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, for your kind introduction. I am very honored by this great opportunity to speak at the 53rd European Regional Science Association Congress in Palermo. Indeed, about half a century ago, before most of you existed, I watched a fascinating movie, “Gatto Pardo,” starring Alain Delon, Burt Lancaster, and Claudia Caldinale in the setting of beautiful Sicily. Since then, it has been my dream to visit Sicily someday. Thanks to the 53rd European RSA Congress, my dream has come true. My presentation today is entitled “Regional Integration and Cultures in the Age of Knowledge Creation－ The Story of the Tower of Babel Revisited－.” In connection with the main theme of this congress, namely, Regional Integration: Europe, the Mediterranean and the World Economy, my presentation today is concerned with the importance of diversity and culture in the sustainable development of the global economy based on innovation and the creation of new knowledge throughout the world. 1. Introduction Indeed, since the late 20th century, we have been witnessing the development of the so-called Brain Power Society. As we know, recently, revolutionary developments in Information・Communication Technology and Transport Technology have been promoting, on the one hand, the so-called globalization of the world economy in trade and investment, and, on the other hand, the development of the so-called Brain Power Society where the creation of new knowledge or innovation has become the major activity of most countries and regions throughout the world.

  • 2021 Olympic Guidebook
    TOKYO SUMMER GAMES GUIDEBOOK PRESENTED BY VINE CONNECTIONS Konnichiwa, The summer games in Tokyo are around the corner and it is the Summer of Sake! I’ve created this guide that features more about the Summer Games in Tokyo, when to watch, what’s new about the games, interesting culture and travel tips around Japan, how to enjoy Japanese sake and spirits, cocktail recipes, and more. At Vine Connections, we’ve been importing premium Japanese sake for over 19 years and currently represent 41 different sakes across 13 prefectures in Japan. Our breweries are steeped in centuries-old tradition, and our portfolio spans traditional style sakes to umami-driven to crisp daiginjos to the funky unexpected. Our sakes are intriguing, connective, provocative, magnetic, and innovative. We have the most comprehensive and diverse sake portfolio. Japanese culture and interest has never been more relevant. The Japanese restaurant industry in the US is projected to grow +25% in 2021, with $27.5 billion in restaurant sales. Consumer demand for Japanese sake is booming with a growth of 36% in retail, up +75% in grocery in 2020. So dive in with me, and let me know how I can be a resource for samples, article ideas, consumer insights and travel tips for future trips.
