G1 Global 2024 - Global Founders in Japan
from G1 Global Podcast · host G1 Institute
Panelists building startups in Japan discuss why they decided to start a business in Japan and common challenges, such as access to local and global funding, hiring non-Japanese talent, and overcoming language and cultural differences. Are some things associated with startups in this country unique to Japan? Does the “time machine” model of localizing successful businesses from other countries still work in Japan? What is the role of government? Panelists also consider what Japan can do better to attract more global talent and how the Japanese startup ecosystem can become more globally connected.
