Summary
An annual networking event hosted by Ishikawa Prefecture and the Ishikawa Sunrise Industries Creation Organization (ISICO), connecting Ishikawa startups with the Tokyo metropolitan area. It is held at Tokyo Innovation Base in Marunouchi, with capacity for 150 attendees. The aim is to build organic ties between the capital region and Ishikawa and to form a cross-regional startup community.
The program has three parts. Part one is a keynote by Tetsuhiro Matsumoto, President and Group CEO of HitoToHito Holdings, titled "Why We Aimed for an IPO: The Challenge of HitoToHito HD." Part two features lightning talks by Ishikawa startups, and part three is an open networking session among attendees.
Lightning talk slots (1 to 3 minutes) are open for applications, targeting representatives of startups headquartered in Ishikawa, founded by people from Ishikawa, or operating (or planning to operate) in Ishikawa. Applications are subject to review by the secretariat.
