Tokyo-Latin America Innovation Exchange

Latin America and the Caribbean, home to more than 650 million people and an economy near USD 7 trillion, is becoming a more important partner for Japan in business, innovation, and talent. This gathering at Tokyo Innovation Base is built around the early-stage partnerships taking shape between Japan and the region, with a focus on market entry and practical exchange. The afternoon brings Latin American embassies and trade offices together with Japanese startups, companies, support organizations, and students. The program runs from embassy remarks and a discussion on Japan-Latin America business links through startup and company pitches, then closes with networking aimed at follow-up conversations. It is open to embassies and trade bodies, startups and companies, sponsors and investors, support organizations, and students, as well as anyone interested in trade, market entry, or building connections between Japan and Latin America.
