Startup Events This Week: Mixer By Inc42, UP Hackathon And More

On December 16, ‘Discovering Japan: The Best of Japanese Startup Ecosystem’ was hosted by “Brave x India” acceleration program, which was launched by Beyond Next Ventures of Japan. Discovering Japan: The Best of Japanese Startup Ecosystem is a pitching and networking night. The event featured four Tokyo-based startups, who are trying to enter the Indian market.

The collaborative event offered an opportunity to learn more about the Japanese startup ecosystem, interact with a Japanese VC and build connections. This event was powered by Morning Pitch, a platform hosted by Deloitte. Morning Pitch helps startups form business alliances and partnerships with large corporations, corporate venture capital, and venture capital firms.

The event originates from Japan where it has served as a similar platform for over six years, resulting in hundreds of business alliances and tens of M&A’s and IPO’s.

As we step into a new week, here’s a list of upcoming events:
