How can Japanese corporations collaborate with global startups?
As open innovation accelerates across Japan, many corporations are increasingly looking beyond domestic ecosystems to find new technologies, partners, and innovation opportunities. Taiwan, known for its strong technology ecosystem in AI, hardware, deep tech, and mobility, has become an important partner for cross-border innovation.
During SusHi Tech Tokyo week, the Taipei City Government brings together Taiwanese startups and ecosystem partners in Tokyo for a special evening exploring how Japanese corporates can collaborate with overseas startups — with Taiwan as a key example.
Startup Island TAIWAN joins as a strategic partner, supporting cross-border connections between Taiwan and Japan’s innovation ecosystems.
This event will feature insights from leading innovation platforms, corporates, and ecosystem builders from Japan and Taiwan, followed by startup pitches and cross-border networking.
Join us to discover new opportunities for Japan–Taiwan corporate innovation and startup collaboration.
