Summary
Go Global Hub #1 opens the 2026 season of a Tokyo Metropolitan Government-supported program that connects founders, startups, companies, investors, government bodies, embassies and support organizations in Japan and overseas. The theme of this first session is Discover Global Challenges: ecosystem players share the social and market challenges and new business and investment themes they see around the world.
After a keynote by Alex Odajima (Japan Representative, Start2 Group K.K.), participants form mixed teams across nationalities and affiliations for a hands-on Cross-border Co-Creation Session, then present their ideas. The evening closes with networking over finger food and drinks. It is held in Shibuya at SivanS, runs in English with Japanese support, is free, and takes 70 to 100 participants. Bring two business cards.
