讲解
Used when starting something important, such as opening a shop, studying abroad, or a new year: "when / in preparation for ~." What follows is often preparation, resolve, or a greeting. It is formal; にあたり is also used in writing. It is close to に際して, but にあたって has a forward-looking feeling of getting ready for what is about to begin.
