In recent years, the rising importance of startup companies has intensified the competition for nurturing and recruiting talent, and globally, an environment promoting innovation and entrepreneurship is gradually being established. However, particularly in Japan, opportunities to broadly communicate the current state of startups are still limited, and many challenges remain for these emerging companies. In response, Nippon Broadcasting System has launched a new initiative to support the growth and success of startups by creating an original podcast program, “Start Up Nippon powered by All Night Nippon.” This program invites startup entrepreneurs, supporters, and experts to discuss success stories, challenges, visions for the future, and their dreams, aiming to showcase the appeal of startups to a wider audience.
“Start Up Nippon powered by All Night Nippon” will play a role in supporting startups, facilitating information sharing among entrepreneurs, investors, and supporters, and reinforcing Tokyo’s position as a hub of innovation with global reach. Additionally, leveraging our unique technology, we will offer English-language content for overseas audiences. Through these efforts, we aim to invigorate the startup community, create networking opportunities.
