The Contest for Japan’s Economic Future: Entrepreneurs Vs. Corporate Giants

Jan. 23, 2024: The Contest for Japan’s Economic Future: Entrepreneurs Vs. Corporate Giants
Shifts in society and technology are giving Japan its greatest opportunity for economic revival in a generation, thanks to a resurrection of the kind of entrepreneurship that created the postwar economic miracle. Yet, inertia and outright resistance could prevent the positive trends from reaching critical mass. Richard Katz discussed what's changing in Japan and what’s still holding Japan’s innovation ecosystem back.
This Japan Zoominar @ UC San Diego is organized by the Japan Forum for Innovation and Technology at the UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy. For more information on activities, as well as recordings of previous Japan Zoominars, please visit jfit.ucsd.edu/.
