I received a lot of support from the Glocal Center, Kyoto Prefecture and JETRO, that introduced me to the Japanese AI ecosystem, VCs, provided a free coworking space, facilitated the startup visa application, meetups with foreign entrepreneurs, events, moral support, and helped me for research and translations during meetings.

The trips from and to the airports were also graciously reimbursed.

Even after the program period finished, the support for my startup visa application was passed to the Kyoto International Startup Center and I am now back in Kyoto getting ready for establish my business and to apply to the business manager visa.
