Summary
Plug and Play Japan hosts a briefing for the Kyoto Startup Overseas Expansion Support Project, a program for Kyoto-based startups aiming to expand globally. The session will outline two tracks: individual business matching support for middle/late-stage startups already pursuing overseas deals, and an overseas tech conference participation program for early/middle-stage startups newly entering global markets. Attendees will hear from SyntheticGestalt's AI business head Daisuke Morohashi on going global, plus details from Plug and Play Japan's Kyoto lead Seiji Iwasaki. The evening closes with a standing networking reception featuring wine from SuisseKey Wine Online Shop. Eligibility requires a Kyoto-based business, founded within roughly 10 years, with a globally-oriented product or prototype ready for overseas negotiations.
