Tokyo Government Launches Genre-Specific Overseas Expansion Consultations

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government announced a new project under its 'Into Global' program: genre-specific one-on-one consultation sessions for small and medium-sized content businesses. The first session, focused on overseas expansion of games, will be held on July 6, 2026, at the Into Global Office in Nakano, Tokyo. Participation is free, with applications due by July 1.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is adding a new layer to its 'Into Global' support program for small and medium-sized content businesses: genre-specific one-on-one consultation sessions. The first such session, focused on overseas expansion of games, will take place on July 6, 2026, at the Into Global Office in Nakano, Tokyo. Each consultation runs about 50 minutes, and participation is free. Applications must be submitted by July 1, and if demand exceeds capacity, participants will be selected based on the content of their consultation topic. The program's existing pillars-a general consultation desk and symposiums covering legal, accounting, and public support topics-continue alongside the new genre-specific sessions.
