Go Global with CIC: Unlocking the Power of Innovation from Japan to the World

Japan’s startups are standing at the edge of a global opportunity. As a global innovation platform, CIC (Cambridge Innovation Center) empowers entrepreneurs, corporations, governments, and universities to collaborate, innovate, and scale beyond borders. In this session, Tim Rowe, Founder and CEO of CIC, joins startup leaders who have leveraged CIC’s global network to expand internationally. Together, they will share their experiences—how they took their first steps toward global expansion, the challenges they faced, and how the CIC ecosystem supported their journey. This session aims to inspire Japanese founders and innovators to take their ambitions global, and to discover how connecting with CIC can open new pathways for growth and impact worldwide.
