Munich Startup and Startup City Fukuoka are giving founders from Munich the opportunity to find suitable partner companies in Japan through matchmaking and thus enter the market. At the online pitch event, up to four startups can present themselves directly and answer questions. Startup City Fukuoka ensures that the participating companies are a good fit for the startups’ offerings and solutions.
And young companies that are not selected for the online event on March 10 can also benefit: Startup City Fukuoka will try to arrange conversations with companies from Japan for them as well.
Further support for market entry in Japan
Startups that successfully found new partners through matchmaking can also count on the support of Startup City Fukuoka afterwards. For example, the startup center helps with obtaining visas – the city of Fukuoka offers special startup visas – or with opening an office.
Startups from Munich can apply if they are listed on munich-startup.de/startups – or register quickly here – and already generate initial revenue with their product or service. Of course, an interest in the Japanese market is also required. Interested startups can apply online until February 17. The online matchmaking takes place on March 10 at 9 a.m.
You can find the application form here.
