Top SchoolRolf Leggewie is a Japan country specialist and owner with 19 years' experience bridging cultural, linguistic and commercial gaps for international clients entering and exiting the Japanese market. He combines hands-on business development and country management roles with technical credibility as a long-time Debian maintainer and former OpenEmbedded CJKV project manager, giving him a rare mix of cross-cultural business acumen and open-source software expertise. Fluent in English, German, Japanese and French, he regularly operates as a high-success freelance on-board courier across global hubs and holds deep operational experience in Tokyo through advisory and country manager positions. Educated at WHU and with exchange study at Keio and business coursework at UT Austin, he brings formal business training plus decades of practical negotiation and localization experience.
