This year’s Global Corporate Venturing Asia Congress from October 1-2 welcomed a delegation of about 50 international corporate venturers.

The Congress was kicked off by the Japan Research Institute (JRI), financial services firm Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary which provides information services, management innovation and IT consulting services, and conducts economic research and GCV to provide the first day’s program: how to design Japanese society in the Reiwa [Emperor Naruhito] era.

BP Ventures, Tencent, SVB and Helsinki Business Hub also enabled meetings more than five years since GCV’s first corporate venturing collaboration at the British Embassy in Tokyo.
