[Messages from participating facilities]

Business Airport (Yuriko Maruyama)
We aim to be a "shared office that feels like a partnership" where entrepreneurs and business people can grow together and meet colleagues who can inspire each other.

We will introduce the actual ways we have created spaces and provided opportunities.

SHIBUYA QWS (Takako Nihei)
The atmosphere and shape of a place are created by each individual who gathers there. At QWS, we value "We Make QWS."

I would be happy if you could get even a little excited about QWS, where diverse members and staff interact and co-creation occurs every day.

Startup Ebisu (Naoya Takeda)
Entrepreneurs' anxieties and conflicts can sometimes be overcome by having someone to talk to, rather than just being told what's right.

We want to be the platform and the one to give them a push. We also provide support, including planning interviews, coordinating with the relevant parties, and creating the space. We will tell you about the reality of this work.

This is your chance to learn about the real appeal of being an incubation manager and what it's like to work in a facility!

Please join us if you are thinking about your future career or want to make connections between facilities.
