This symbolizes Nansha's rapid progress, carrying the mission of becoming an international logistics hub and a center for bulk commodity resource allocation. In addition, Nansha, in collaboration with 20 enterprises, showcased high-quality products from around the globe, spanning sectors such as fine wines and gourmet foods, artworks, advanced technology, biomedicine, and new materials.

In the future, the Nansha Import Demonstration Zone will focus on playing a leading role in increasing resource imports, serving industries, and boosting consumption. It will cultivate specialized import platforms, elevate the scale and sophistication of import trade, and continuously optimize the business environment. By positioning itself as an inclusive, cooperative, and mutually beneficial gateway for opening up to the world, Nansha is set to work hand in hand with all sectors of society to "Share the Future in a New Era."

TOKYO, Dec. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Tokyo-based global media agency Pacific Bridge Media and Consulting Inc. (PBMC) is pleased to announce that the 2nd annual Japan Global Innovators' Forum (JGIF) will be held in March 2025. PBMC's solutions-focused multilingual news service J-Stories will co-host the event with the Mainichi national daily's startup accelerator, Mainichi Future Creation Lab.
Innovative Japanese and international startups with global ambitions will gather in the heart of Tokyo on March 13, showcasing the solutions they offer to address the world's biggest social and environmental challenges. A panel of industry experts will assess their growth potential both in Japan and abroad at the cross-border pitch event.
Participating startups in the 2025 event will include not only Japanese startups aiming to expand into global markets, but also ambitious inbound Asian startups that are taking on the challenge of solving some of Japan's critical problems — such as its aging population and rural depopulation.
The categories to be focused on are Age Tech, Health Tech, Mobility, and Green Energy. There will also be special sessions featuring East Asian startups as well as Japan's regional startups.
Organizers hope that the event will provide practical opportunities for participating entrepreneurs to meet potential partners and supporters in Japan and overseas, including venture capitalists and corporate venture capitalists, among other startup ecosystem players.
Details of the event will be unveiled on a special page in J-Stories by the end of January.
The inaugural Japan Global Innovators' Forum, a pioneering English-language startup event that promoted dialogue between innovators in Japan and their potential supporters overseas, was held in March of this year at the Tokyo Innovation Base in central Tokyo and live-streamed globally. The event highlighted Japan-based social entrepreneurs aiming to scale globally while offering solutions to social and environmental challenges commonly shared across the world.
