Okura Prize

    Keywords: Culture & History

The prestigious Okura prize is named after Baron Okura Kishichiro, a primary patron of professional go in Japan in the early 20th century and one of the founding patrons of the Nihon Kiin. He was made a member of the Nihon Kiin Go Hall of Fame in 2006. The prize is awarded by the Nihon Kiin, generally annually, in recognition for contributions to the spreading and growth of the game of go.
