Background

In Decembre of 2005 an executive of US company operating in Japan brought to light the needs of very basic knowledge dedicated to the field of marketing in his group.  This was the starting point for building an online directory of very basic marketing resources.  By January 2006 the project moved under the study group name Marketing Academy/Jyuku where it remains today.  Over this time the site has grown from an inside company web directory to an open web site that includes mail magazine, articles, forums, links to industry news and much more.
