Event Overview:
An open discussion between three widely regarded experts in the Japan entrepreneur space. Refereed by Thomas R. Shockley. So much of Japan’s entrepreneurial action goes on beneath the radar that it’s hard to get a fix on what entrepreneurs are up to and where they’re headed. Are they taking their cues from abroad or doing something uniquely Japanese? Will Tokyo’s entrepreneurial superstars continue to drive things or will regional hubs be the wave of the future? And what happens when a Sharp or a Panasonic closes its doors and a few thousand experienced engineers set up shop in their garages? To try and answer these questions and many more, we’ve invited three top practicing entrepreneurs, Jonathan Epstein, Swimmy Minami and James Riney to share their views with us in a free-flowing conversational setting. Don’t miss this rare insider’s take on what’s happening in the most dynamic sector of Japan’s economy. Click the names above in blue for general bio details. Three days prior to the event, an email will be sent to attendees requesting questions for the panelists. Please note that these questions will only be included in the conversation if time allows.
