At its most recently-launched branch in Tokyo, a ‘Spark Plug’ meet-up event was held yesterday. Five startups pitched their ideas to an enthusiastic audience.
Hub Tokyo was officially launched on February 11th of this year. I’ve met with some of the people behind the co-working space, but I visited the venue for the first time just yesterday. Most Hub locations around the world are located in the very heart of a given city, typically in a nicely designed or renovated building. But this Tokyo branch is surprisingly a 10-minute walk from Meguro station on Tokyo’s central Yamanote line, a cozy space set up in a former print factory. The venue’s co-founder, Shingo Potier de la Morandière, explains: Unlike our other locations in Europe or the rest of the world, we need to pay much more to rent a venue here in Tokyo. Even with some sponsorships from big companies, it’s very hard to make our business sustainable and keep operations running. However, we are really keen to help Japanese entrepreneurs connect to the global community. We’ll intensify interactive community-based activities with our global network, including person-to-person exchanges with foreign startups. Hopefully we can see more great work coming out of this space in the future. But for now, let’s hear about the five startups that pitched at this Spark Plug event. Website: getgamba.com Pitched by: Masahiro Morita Some of our readers may recall that we featured this startup in our recent coverage of Samurai Venture Summit. Gamba is a corporate communication platform that facilitates the submission of daily reports. It has deployed short status message input on its business communication platform, which helps office workers share what they are doing with colleagues and management. Interestingly, the app is not only used among SMEs or startups but also bigger companies. Competitors in this space include Chatwork, Co-work, and Talknote. JMEC co-hosts a 'Meet JMEC' session with the Danish, Norwegian and Swedish Chambers of Commerce on May 10, 18:30 - 21:30 at Oakwood Premier at Tokyo Midtown. A light buffet with a complimentary drink and networking follows the presentation on JMEC. Join us on Friday, May 10, 2013 18:30 – 21:30 Oakwood Premier Tokyo Midtown Lounge (map) 3000 yen for a light buffet and a complimentary beverage RSVP to [email protected] Pay at the door The Danish, Swedish and Norwegian Chambers sponsor JMEC to help their members with practical business training and cost effective market analysis.
JMEC is a business-training program centered on a competition to write the best business plan. The program trains participants in business planning skills and then gives them an immediate chance to apply their new skills to write a business plan for a product or service that a client has asked JMEC to investigate. Project client companies get market analysis and creative thinking from a JMEC team of 4-6 participants. Tokyo Professionals will hold a business networking event on May 21st starting 7:00 PM at the Conrad Tokyo in Shiodome.
