Kawachinagano City to Hold Reverse Pitch Event

1. Purpose and Objectives

Kawachinagano City is seeking new solutions in various fields, including the utilization of regional resources, creation of tourism and exchange opportunities, multicultural coexistence, support for children and youth, and enhancement of internal administrative operations.

We believe it is important not only for the administration to tackle these challenges but also to leverage the knowledge, technology, and ideas of private companies to solve regional issues and create new value.

This event is held in a "reverse pitch" format, where the city presents its challenges to companies, with the aim of exploring the possibilities for demonstration projects and business collaborations using Kawachinagano City as a field, and creating opportunities for new public-private partnerships.
