The ‘COMMUNITY CAMPUS of Global Entrepreneurship’ is an entrepreneurship education program open to everyone. It positions individuals globally, promoting growth as entrepreneurs who pursue opportunities despite uncertainties and resource constraints.

Features:

Practical Entrepreneurship Education: Directed by Yasuhiro Yamakawa, the Executive Director of Venture Café Tokyo and an educator at the #1 entrepreneurship institution, Babson College, where he teaches ‘Entrepreneurship.’ This program accelerates participants’ entrepreneurship with cutting-edge educational methods. Participants will form teams and go through the entire process of business creation based on the knowledge acquired in the program. Outputs are primarily in English, fostering a global perspective and capability.

Open Enrollment to All (*): We firmly believe in the power of diversity and await participation from varied individuals. The course is planned in both Japanese and English. Whether you are someone unsure of where to start your entrepreneurial journey or someone with an idea looking for opportunities to refine it, everyone is welcome.

Collaboration with Japan’s Largest Innovation Community: The program is set to be held at CIC Tokyo on Thursdays, coinciding with the Venture Café Tokyo ‘Thursday Gathering,’ which attracts 400 innovators every week. By attending the ‘Thursday Gathering’ before or after the program, the participants of COMMUNITY CAMPUS can further accelerate their learning by effectively networking and receiving feedback. Moreover, the participants can also benefit from mentoring opportunities from the vast and experienced network of Venture Café Tokyo.
