Japan Market Entry Accelerator
Rapidly test your product-market fit, accelerate your go-to-market, & thrive in the 4th largest market in the world.
The Living Best Japan Market Entry Accelerator is a unique 3-month, online program designed to facilitate end-to-end entry into the Japanese market for international companies, putting human-centered design & user research at its core.
As the world’s third-largest economy, Japan presents a significant opportunity for growth and expansion. However, its unique business culture, regulatory environment, and consumer preferences can pose challenges for foreign businesses.
Our accelerator program aims to bridge these gaps, providing the tools, knowledge, and networks necessary to help define participating companies’ product-market fit and go-to-market strategy, in turn enabling a successful market entry.
The top-performing company through the program will receive an offer of ongoing support (either consideration for investment, establishment of a fully-funded local Japanese entity, or a distribution agreement).
