Japan Connect Initiative (JCI) is a joint effort between Tsucrea and TSI, designed to support inbound and outbound startups in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Singapore, with the aim of building a sustainable cross-border ecosystem in Tokyo - Southeast Asia.
JCI provides various support such as seminars to acquire knowledge essential for conducting business in the target country, covering aspects like the business environment and laws. Additionally, the program offers regular consultations to ensure tangible results, business matching support, and so on.
【Inbound / SEA Program Stream】
The inbound program application opened on November 13, 2023. Starting from October, we diligently worked on preparations; we selected reliable local partners and made attractive brochures and a website. Furthermore, a series of introduction seminars were successfully held in local countries: Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and Vietnam from December 5 to December 8. The introduction seminars not only provided an overview of the program but also explained the Japanese market, and helped participants deepen their understanding of the Japanese market. From each country, approximately 20 to 30 participants attended, resulting in increased applications for the program.
【Outbound / Japan Program Stream】
In preparation for the application open on May 1, 2024, we are making brochures and a website. In addition, we are selecting mentors with rich experience. Moreover, we are organizing seminars to provide valuable insights into the markets, laws, and cultural aspects that individuals interested in the program should be aware of when doing business. Although the application is not open yet, we are diligently working on preparations to ensure that all participants feel confident and well-prepared for a successful overseas expansion.
