It was an honor to welcome the Heart of America Japan America Society (HAJAS) to our Kansas facility.

Panasonic Energy’s Kansas interns had the incredible opportunity to dive into Japanese culture, learning about the traditional tea ceremony, calligraphy, and origami, and much more.

It is our pleasure to give our employees and interns the chance to learn about the customs that contribute to Japanese heritage.

Learning takes many forms for our Kansas Interns 👷

We’re proud our team of employees and summer interns had the chance to help Habitat for Humanity of Kansas City build affordable homes in a community near our Kansas facility.

Grace Greene, Jake Akehurst, Lauren Somerhalder coordinated this effort and many more that benefit our neighbors in Kansas and give our summer interns amazing experiences!

We’re excited to see what they do next!

We were proud to welcome Japanese delegates participating in the American Council of Young Political Leaders (ACYPL) program, hosted by State Representative Representative Jo Ella Hoye.

During their visit to Kansas, the group joined us for a window tour and presentation, getting a closer look at our facility and the work happening here.

The visit provided a great opportunity to share perspectives, highlight Kansas leadership, and strengthen the connection between Kansas and Japan while showcasing the impact of global investment at the local level.
