10th Inter-Chamber Ski & Snowboarding Weekend, Hakuba

The 10th Anniversary Edition of the Inter-Chamber Ski & Snowboard Weekend (Hakuba, Saturday, 31 January) is now open for registration at the event webpage of the Austrian Business Council (ABC).

This year the IJCC are delighted to be joining the ABC on the slopes of Hakuba, Nagano for one of their signature events. The event is open to everyone - chamber members or not! Bring your family, friends, business contacts – skiers, snowboarders, and winter lovers of all ages are welcome.

Jointly organized by the Chambers of Austria, Belgium-Luxembourg, Ireland, Spain, and Switzerland (with more to come), this event promises a diverse and international crowd. Typically, half of the participants are locals and the other half from abroad, creating a diverse mix and making for a great event.
The “race” is a friendly competition, a simple giant slalom, something to enjoy no matter whether you are an experienced or first time participant. We also always have a group for snowboarders!
