On behalf of the JICN Co-Presidents Anthony Luna and Angela Yuen, and the entire JICN Board, thank you to everyone who joined the JICN Year-End Party to celebrate the close of 2025. With over 60 in-house counsel and friends of our network in attendance, the energy and connections made it a truly meaningful evening.

This year, we experienced significant growth in our membership, and we learned that in-house counsels are actively seeking opportunities to connect, network, and learn from each other. Your support and enthusiasm continue to shape the future of our community.

We are deeply grateful to our sponsors—Morrison Foerster, Anderson Mori & Tomotsune, and southgate Law —for supporting the event.

We also extend our sincere thanks to the generous raffle donors, including:
• Morrison Foerster
• Anderson Mori & Tomotsune (AMT)
• Southgate
• Cucina del Nabucco
• Restaurant Calistoga (Kamakura)
• Fiskars Group (Wedgwood, Georg Jensen, Royal Copenhagen)

Looking ahead to 2026, we are excited to continue building our network with more networking events, mentoring sessions, visits to member companies, and collaborations with leading law firms and service providers. These opportunities help us share experiences, best practices, and explore new ways of working and building community in this fast-changing legal environment — all in an English-speaking setting.

Wishing everyone a joyful holiday season and an exciting start to the new year.
