Summary
A 90-minute ideation workshop for students, held on the 1st floor of Tokyo Innovation Base in Yurakucho. It is aimed at students who want to try starting a business but have no idea yet, or who have an idea but lack confidence explaining it. Participants learn hands-on how to generate ideas, structure them so others understand, and refine them. The mentor is Hirokazu Udagawa, community manager of TIB JAM. With his support, participants organize the problem, customer, and solution, aiming to leave with one idea developed enough to take into further mentoring or feedback sessions. Admission is free and capacity is about 10 people.
