Richard Mort · Japan–Europe

Get things moving between Japan and Europe.

When you need to find the right company, prepare a conversation or make a trade show count, I can take on the research and practical work. I'm Richard Mort, a British researcher, writer and interpreter in Düsseldorf, with twenty years in Japan behind me.

Ninety WEF articles, brought together

For Davos 2026, I read ninety World Economic Forum articles and brought them together in a 6,835-word synthesis. This was independent editorial work.

Reading it will give you a good idea of how I tackle a large subject and make the material useful to someone else. My Davos work received a personal commendation from the Forum's head of communications.

From introductions to signed agreements

I've helped Japanese company presidents find providers in Cologne and go on to contract with them. I've worked with a French chamber of commerce to help startup delegations reach Japan and find opportunities to pitch to SoftBank. I've also helped fintech companies meet managing directors.

The work often starts well before the meeting and continues afterwards. I research the background and help explain why the parties should talk. And I stay interested in what happens next.

Two events. Different jobs to do.

Support that people remember

Takeshi Ibaraki at OPTEX sent me this message after I supported him. It is included in the reference material I share with prospective clients.

I was feeling the greatest support I've ever had

Work with me directly

You deal with me throughout. Where a project needs PANSOME or another agreed partner, you will know who is responsible for each part.

Tell me what you're trying to do, where you're getting stuck and when you need it done. I'll tell you how I can help and what the work would cost.
