We’re excited to announce the official launch of the Osaka Startup Ecosystem website!
Osaka is home to a dynamic and growing startup community—and now, there’s a central place to explore it. Our new platform is designed to connect entrepreneurs with the resources they need to thrive: from investors and accelerators to corporate partners and government support.
This initiative is part of the Global Startup City project, a national program aimed at boosting innovation and global collaboration. Osaka works in close partnership with Kyoto and Hyogo-Kobe, forming a powerful Kansai startup alliance where tradition meets technology, and ideas scale into impact.
