"Congratulations on your 30th anniversary." from Mr. Bill Moran (Publisher, SCIENCE/AAAS )
Congratulations on your 30th anniversary.
Congratulations to ASCA on it’s 30th anniversary. ASCA has been serving as a bridge for Science/AAAS in Japan. It has been a mutually beneficial collaboration with a shared vision to help the Japanese research community. In the early days ASCA helped AAAS to gain awareness within the Japanese scientific community. Starting in 1997 ASCA translated the Science Japanese version and in 1999 started taking on marketing and support for AAAS members within Japan. Fast forward ASCA has taken on advertising and sponsorship projects along with support of our prize program in Japan. I would like to point out ASCA has helped with setting up the AAAS summit meeting in Japan which is a forum for international dialogue on the state of Japan science.
Our goal is to listen and share ideas to help researchers and organizations better the Japanese scientific enterprise. ASCA shares this vision. I may not have known ASCA for 30 years but I am happy to have ASCA as a partner. Congratulations again on a very special 30th anniversary.
