Create a platform for cooperation between Chinese and Japanese companies.

On November 7, 36Kr Japan, a sub-brand of 36Kr Global, and Nikkei Japan Economic News Agency jointly held the third China Science and Technology Empowerment Industry Innovation Series Forum at the Nikkei headquarters in Otemachi, Tokyo. To “focus on China’s new retail.”

In recent years, large Japanese companies have begun to explore the road to innovation and transformation in China. The focus on China’s venture capital ecology has risen again, but there is still no effective link channel. On the other hand, although start-ups have become the engine of China’s innovation ecology, they lack communication platforms and local media exposure when they go abroad, move to the Northeast Asian market, and reach out to enterprises and investors.

To this end, together with strategic partners Nikkei, 36Kr Japan will be the China Science and Technology Empowerment Industry Innovation Series Forum as a link platform for Sino-Japanese business cooperation. Relying on the appeal of China’s venture capital ecology and partner Nikkei as the influence of Japan’s largest financial news media, 36Kr Japan will bring more and more Chinese venture capital “seed players” to Japan, and Japan invited to participate. The top leaders of large enterprises jointly explore the frontier hot spots of China’s innovation ecology, break the barriers of information exchange between Chinese and Japanese companies, and promote cross-border cooperation among enterprises.

At present, the forum is held every two months. The theme is set as the “windport” vertical industry in China’s venture capital ecology, which is divided into four major sectors: market literacy, industry analysis, innovation interpretation and Sino-Japanese links.
