On Saturday, meetings were held across Japan for Nova Corp. instructors and staff, to provide information about the sponsor's plans for the future.

Given the short notice (about two days), there was an impressive turnout at the meeting I went to, one of two held at Nova's office in Shinjuku.

A large number of the around-400 attendees were in suits and ties in anticipation of interviews planned for after the session. However, G.communication decided not to go ahead with the interviews on the day, which suggests that the high head count had taken them by surprise.
