Seminars

At Mitsue-Links, we`ve been holding free seminars on web-related topics since July 2004.

Through our seminar content, we endeavor to share know-how on a variety of current trends and themes. We typically host seminars on topics including web standards, SEO, site performance, web analytics, CMS, SNS, smartphone and multi-device support, UX, as well as accessibility themes related to WCAG and JIS.

Seminars continue to be held on a multitude of topics and remain incredibly popular. The summary below introduces some of our most recent seminars (please note seminars were held in Japanese).

On April 15, 2020, we held our “Web Design Trends 2020” seminar for the third time. While initially planned for our head office`s seminar room, as is customary, due to the spread of the novel-coronavirus, we decided to hold event online – a first for our company. As per previous holdings of this seminar, Kazuhito Kidachi, corporate director and CTO, and Mayumi Endo, Art Director, provided an easy-to-understand explanation of web design trend forecasts for 2020.

As of mid-2020, our seminar programs are only held in Japan. Furthermore, at this time, seminars are neither held in the English language nor is simultaneous interpretation available. On occasions where we jointly host a seminar with an international business partner, the seminar will most likely be held in English with a simultaneous interpretation to Japanese.
