On Thursday, May 15, 2025, the Board members of the Society were graciously invited by the Embassy of Sweden, in collaboration with the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in Japan (SCCJ), to a cocktail reception at Hotel Okura Tokyo. The event was held on the occasion of the visit to Japan by His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf, who was in the country to visit Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan.

The reception was also attended by SCCJ members and other members of the Swedish community. Participants had the honor of introducing themselves to His Majesty the King and engaging in warm conversation with him in a cordial and welcoming atmosphere. In his speech, His Majesty expressed his enthusiasm by cheerfully declaring, “We are all ambassadors for Sweden!”
