On 10 July, the City of Kobe’s Vice Mayor Mr Terasaki and staff of the city’s International Department visited the CLAIR Sydney office. The delegation visited Australia to participate in the 2019 Asia Pacific Cities Summit held in Kobe’s sister city, Brisbane. After the Summit, the delegation stopped over in Sydney to visit the Sydney Startup Hub, which the New South Wales Government opened last year, and the Barangaroo area.
The CLAIR Sydney office supported the Kobe City delegation’s visit by arranging the delegation’s meeting appointments with local organisations, accompanying the delegation on the day to the Sydney Startup Hub and Barangaroo, and providing the delegation with an outline presentation on Australia. CLAIR Sydney will continue to support the City of Kobe’s activities in Australia.
From the 3rd to the 13th of December, eight selected swimmers from the Fukuoka Swimming Association visited NSW, where they participated in joint training sessions with a local school and competed in the 2024-25 Speedo NSW Senior State Age Championships.
