Based at the Osaka Innovation Hub, we are proceeding with initiatives to support the creation and growth of startups. Currently, in particular, we aim for global growth of startups, and in addition to focusing on building networks with overseas support organizations and planning and operation of overseas expansion programs, we are also working on the formation and development of the Osaka/Kansai startup ecosystem as a global ecosystem base city through PR activities to disseminate the Osaka/Kansai startup ecosystem overseas. Furthermore, we aim to create opportunities leading to business expansion for startups by taking advantage of the opportunity for many overseas companies and institutions to visit Osaka at the Osaka-Kansai Expo.
