"GoFurtherWest – Investment opportunities with Japan" – (GoWest Breakout session)

​When Europe’s entrepreneurial drive meets Japan’s engineering excellence and industrial networks, scalable and resilient solutions take shape. Europe has become the launchpad where frontier ideas meet real markets, while Japan offers the industrial depth and global reach to scale them worldwide.

​Dealroom’s latest report confirms this as since 2024, around 6% of all VC investment in Europe has involved Japanese capital, amounting to €3.5 billion. This is not capital tourism—Japan has a long-standing tradition of building enduring partnerships rather than one-off transactions. 

​Hosted by NordicNinja VC, the largest Japan-backed venture capital fund in Europe, this breakout session is designed for investors and startups seeking to capture the financial and strategic opportunities that Japan offers: patient long-term capital, deep industrial ecosystems, strong corporate partnerships, access to a sophisticated domestic market, and a stable, globally connected financial environment.
