Japan, the world's third-largest economy, presents numerous opportunities for sectors such as AI, biotech, digital health, fintech, circular economy, cybersecurity, and mobility services. The country is keen on expediting its transformation into smart and circular cities, while also addressing the significant challenges posed by an aging population.
Japanese corporations and investors are actively looking for startups to invest-in. Ciriot is widely connected with investors and business accelerators in Japan for match-making of funding.
The business environment in Japan is increasingly open to foreign companies establishing a presence. A variety of grants and incentives are available to facilitate their entry into Japan. In the healthcare sector, insurance reimbursement systems are now more conducive to the adoption of new digital and self-care solutions. Moreover, the process of establishing a company in Japan is less complicated than one might expect.
Japan is actively promoting itself as a hub for broader Asian markets. Japanese corporations boast extensive value chains throughout Asia. Partnering with these entities presents opportunities not only within Japan but across the entire Asian continent.
