Japan’s largest startup conference, FUSE, delivered a fascinating session about the country’s innovation sector.

FUSE, Japan’s largest startup conference, brings together major corporations, startups, education institutions, and governments from around the world to engage in dialogue and exchanges that lead to innovation, collaboration, and co-creation. Held in January this year, the conference featured prominent speakers and 3,000 attendees, facilitating more than 9,300 interactions.

The conference focused on introducing globalization to Japan’s growing industries. It also aimed to help foreign companies understand the business and investment opportunities in Japan, as well as strengthen collaboration between overseas businesses and partners in Japan.

36Kr Japan and KrASIA, both part of 36Kr Global, have joined FUSE as overseas media partners. 36Kr Global has created a 90-minute video with English and Chinese subtitles to help Asia-based companies and investors better understand the Japanese market and trends. This video will be released at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, April 28, 2022. It will be available here.
