For Companies

Our Black Belt initiative: Supporting corporate innovation.

‍Innovation Dojo Japan LLC and Japan Tech Ventures, Inc. have joined forces to leverage their combined expertise in fund management and consulting services. Together, we aim to drive successful innovation for companies and regions by utilizing our extensive experience and strengths in these areas.

‍At Innovation Dojo Japan, we prioritize both the process and the outcomes of corporate innovation. Our team is composed of members with entrepreneurial experience and a solid track record of supporting startups at every stage, both in Japan and internationally.

Our mentors and lecturers are experts in open innovation, particularly within Japanese companies, and all our staff are fluent in English for seamless communication. To ensure efficient project management, we appoint a dedicated program manager who oversees progress and coordinates with your team. This individual brings not only experience in mentoring and strategic advising for Japanese companies collaborating with overseas partners, but also deep insight from working in corporate CVC investment.

With this expertise, we provide practical, high-quality advice tailored to the needs of participating companies, ensuring success from their perspective.

Our team has experience leading Japanese corporate open innovation and startup-corporate engagement programs with some of Japan’s largest and most respected companies and conglomerates.

Services include:

  • Access to triaged Japanese and foreign startups
  • Specialist support on engagement with startups
    (Japanese and foreign)
  • Building a startup community and technology pipeline around your company brand
WHY US?
  • We don't just work from a database of Japanese corporations and VCs without context, but instead, we have live relationships with over 50 Japanese corporations that generally want to engage with potential collaborators as part of their innovation strategies.
  • We have a strong team and track record of selling into and closing deals with some of the largest companies in Japan for innovation and startup related projects.
  • We are recognised as industry and thought leaders, often asked to make presentations at major Japan related innovation themed events and conferences.
  • We have not only bilingual professionals with project management experience, but our current team we have been designing and executing innovation programs and services for 10 years
