Another successful year for Imperial Students at the 9th Japanese Speech Contest for University Students

It was another successful year for Imperial College Students from the Imperial Horizons programme at the 9th Japanese Speech Contest for University Students. The final was held on the 1st March 2014 and this year’s contest saw a total of 117 students from 18 different universities taking part, meaning that the competition for the 15 places in the finals was exceptionally high. Approximately 200 spectators attended on the day, including representatives from companies sponsoring the contest.
