STORY As part of Columbia Video Network’s “Eye on Japan” series, Dean Zvi Galil traveled to Tokyo to interview Dr. Kouji Ohboshi, chairman of NTT DoCoMo, called by Business Week “the most advanced wireless Net access service on the planet.” The interview is available on videocast through CVN and Newport Asia Pacific University (NAPU). NTT DoCoMo employs 20,000 people world-wide, has a market value of $139 billion, and had operating revenues of $37 billion last year. To see the interview, go to the CVN home page.
While in Japan, Dean Galil hosted a reception at the Hilton Tokyo for SEAS alumni, both young and old, CVN students, and representatives of NAPU and several Japanese companies. He renewed his acquaintance with Dr. Yoshiro NakaMats, shown in the photo near right in the Engineering School tie. Dr. NakaMats delivered the first “Eye on Japan” lecture and holds the world’s record for the most patented inventions. He is shown in the photo with Dr. Takeshi Nagano ’55, former president of Mitsubishi Materials Corp. and currently president of The Engineering Academy of Japan. “Eye on Japan” will host additional lectures during
