Presentation to Ajinomoto Global CFOs

Among the many highlights of 2025 was the privilege of presenting to the Ajinomoto Co., Inc. Global CFOs on the topic of AI adoption by Japanese corporations. My sincere thanks to Group CFO Mr. Eiichi Mizutani for the invitation.

I really enjoyed the engaging discussion that followed and appreciated the insightful questions from all of the CFOs regarding effective AI adoption strategies and the questions on their minds.

“Mike provided a thought-provoking strategic perspective to our global CFOs on how Japanese corporations are adopting AI startup technology to drive growth. By sharing concrete examples from across the corporate landscape, he helped our leadership team frame our ongoing discussions regarding our next steps.”
