Investment thesis

X-HUB TOKYO is a Tokyo Metropolitan Government program that links Tokyo's startup ecosystem with the world. It runs three programs: an Outbound Program helping Tokyo-based startups expand overseas via six regional courses (Boston, Austin, UK, Germany, Singapore, Korea) in partnership with local global accelerators offering bootcamps, mentoring, business partnerships and fundraising opportunities; an Inbound Program supporting foreign startups entering Tokyo with mentoring, legal/market lectures, business matching, networking and pitch events; and a Scrum Program supporting business hypothesis validation. The initiative aims to foster sustainable innovation by connecting domestic and international startups with large corporations and VCs.
