Start-Up World Cup
On July 19th, Friday 2024, I have attended my first business event as a SASAL INC Intern. bThis event was the Start Up World Cup, during which various start up companies were introducing their concepts and presenting their ideas.Start Up World Cup
As a start up itself, it is important for SASAL INC to attend events such as this one in order to discover more corporations which are in the same situation and it is always a good way to promote SASAL INC even more.
The event took place in a prestigious hotel in the district of Roppongi, in Tokyo. Several events were held on that same day, but I attended the one where we could go from booth to booth to discover the diverse start-ups. I had the opportunity to discuss with various start-up representatives who introduced me to their work and how they came to develop their ideas. The majority of the start-ups I encountered were focused on AI and on the use of new technologies such as robots, etc. Each start-up had approximately three representatives, and they were all available to answer our questions and to explain the functions and goals of their company.
Throughout this event, I went to nearly every single booth and listened to everyone’s ideas. I was able to exchange with lots of hard-working individuals who are driven by the will to make their ideas become reality. Those start ups all seemed to have a common goal, which was to propose a product or service that could ease the life or the work of their clients.
What I Have Learned From This Event
As a first experience, I really enjoyed attending this event. By communicating with various people from different backgrounds with diversified ideas and ambitions, I was able to put my own goals and thoughts into perspective. During this event, I was able to meet new people who I would have never had the chance to interact with if it was not for attending this Start-Up World Cup event. These interactions allowed me to practice my Japanese speaking skills as well as to learn how people communicate in casual business settings. It was encouraging to see that despite the disparities, everyone seemed to have the same goal, which was simply to succeed in the work industry. I applaud the courage each person has to come forward in this competitive scene by spreading their concept and working their way up.
It is also a good way to develop social skills and confidence by promoting the company I work for and by accepting that my name will be associated with my business ambitions. As a first offline event experience, I believe the Start-Up World Cup was very appropriate.
Now that I attended my first event, I have more knowledge on how these work and I am ready to attend new events.
Only Networking
I joined this event twice; in this event, there is a time 1 on 1 talk with attendees. And the operator of this event is so kind so I felt something hometown. For the person who would like to have casual networking time, I recommend this event.
SASAL, Inc. joined the ACCJ event. This event is held in Japan.
In this event, we sang the national anthem of each country, and we can have the networking also. Compared to other events in Japan, there are many foreigners at this event.
New York CHAMBER
The event is focused on networking. The attendees will be around 30 every time, and all the people have the time to introduce each business.
I joined this event for the second time. It is really effective because it focuses on networking. I’m able to know each person’s business quickly; hence, the people who are at the starter level of business are suitable. Thank you.
