As one of the biggest football clubs in Europe, we would feel delighted and honoured to invite you to our exclusive networking evening in Tokyo. Managing Director, Mr. Philipp Türoff former CFO of the international brand Birkenstock and Dr. Carsten Wettich, Vice President, will give you an introduction about the football club 1.FC Köln and an inside about the future activities planned in Japan.In addition, we would like to highlight how the club can support Japanese companies in their brand building operations in Germany and Europe. Furthermore, we are honored to announce that former FC Köln player, Yasuhiko Okudera, who was the first japanese player ever in the Bundesliga and Kazuyuki Morisaki, former player and representative of Sanfrecce Hiroshima will also join our event.

Founded in 1948 we have a long and glorious tradition winning three German Championships and four German Cup titles while qualifying 27 times for European Cup competitions. However, it is the electrifying atmosphere of our home games and the passionate emotions of our supporters that set us apart from any other franchise, making us a club that touches and moves the hearts of more than 1.4 million supporters nationwide. With almost 120.000 members FC Köln is one of the largest football clubs in the country and globally - and it is 100% membership owned.  Besides being a football club, we have also transformed into an emotional media platform for multiple companies that are using the large variety of our marketing opportunities for their brand building purposes. With more than 900 partner companies and a specific start-up accelerator program the club forms a perfect network to generate new business contacts.

Our road to Japan started back in 1978 when our player Yasuhiko Okudera became the first Japanese professional in the Bundesliga and first ever German Champion.  Adding on that in 1979 Japanese company "Pioneer" became our first jersey sponsor ever.  Since then, we have been constantly evolving our footprints in Japan by having established a cooperation with Sanfrecce Hiroshima, hosting youth soccer schools in Japan and launching a talent program.As we aim to continue on this path by establishing additional long-term partnerships, it would be a huge honour for us if you can grant us the opportunity to meet you at our networking event in Tokyo.
