This seminar, co-hosted with SERVCORP, is designed for foreign nationals considering starting a business in Japan. It aims to provide an overview of Japan’s startup ecosystem, comprehensively organize what foreign entrepreneurs need to know when starting a business in Japan, and provide practical learning that will help them prepare smoothly for starting their business.
The seminar will be held as a three-part series:

In this first session, we will start with a macro-level explanation of the environment surrounding startups in Japan, including policies, and then will look at the challenges that foreigners in particular tend to face when starting up a business, explaining the background and trends behind these challenges. And then also learn about countermeasures through examples of overseas entrepreneurs who have started and continue their businesses in Japan.
