Summary
YOKOHAMA CONNÉCT#48 is Venture Café's innovation networking program, held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at TECH HUB YOKOHAMA, the city's support hub for tech startups. It is free and open to entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, students and anyone else, and each session runs in hybrid format (in person and streamed online).
This edition features a bilingual "How to enjoy YOKOHAMA CONNÉCT" session introducing the community to first-time visitors, a panel on building an ecosystem for women's careers and well-being from the individual, corporate and city-government angles, and "MOBILITY FUTURES NIGHT YOKOHAMA 2026 #03", where speakers from METI, RICOS and Honda Xcelerator Ventures discuss how AI is reshaping the mobility industry and its path to real-world deployment.
An open networking area runs from 16:00 to 20:30. In-person attendees must pre-register on the YOKOHAMA CONNÉCT website rather than through Luma.
