We just got back from 4 days in Fukuoka in Kyushu Japan. Our goal was to go check out Fukuoka’s credentials as a great place for a startup. A few years back, the Japanese government designated Fukuoka as the national “Startup City” and since then a lot has changed. We’ve seen the introduction of new coworking spaces, government programs to help get startups funded and a new startup visa. We’ll talk about all of these in today’s Asia Tech Podcast, as well as insights into life in Fukuoka, the people that make the Fukuoka startup scene and what the future looks like for this city.
