I’m visiting Japan for a business trip and will need to introduce myself at a meeting. How can I properly introduce myself in Japanese?

私（わたし）は[Your Name]です。会社（かいしゃ）の名前（なまえ）は[Your Company]です。よろしくお願いします（おねがいします）。
Watashi wa [Your Name] desu. Kaisha no namae wa [Your Company] desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
My name is [Your Name]. The name of my company is [Your Company]. I look forward to working with you.
In a Japanese business setting, it’s important to make a respectful first impression. Start by stating your name with “Watashi wa [Your Name] desu.” Follow it by introducing your company with “Kaisha no namae wa [Your Company] desu.” Finally, use “Yoroshiku onegaishimasu” to convey politeness and express anticipation of good relations. This phrase doesn’t have a direct English translation but signifies respect and cooperation.
