Dooox Inc. (Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Ryosuke Kubodera / hereinafter "the Company"), operating under the corporate philosophy of "Changing the world through action," operates the India expansion support platform "Do Lab India". We are pleased to announce the online seminar "India Expansion and Business Strategy" to be held on Friday, May 15, 2026.
In this webinar, we invite Mr. Naoto Ejima, Director of the Japan Desk at HLS Global India, as a speaker to provide detailed, practical insights. Topics will range from the latest market trends and selecting specific methods of entry to how to overcome the "partner management barrier" that many Japanese companies face post-entry.
■ Background of the Event
Backed by a massive demographic dividend and economic growth, India is one of the most closely watched markets in the world. However, deciding "which state and in what form to enter" within this vast country, as well as managing local operations from the Japanese headquarters post-entry, comes with unique business customs and risks.
The "Do Lab India" platform operated by our company aims to increase information transparency and support execution to turn Japanese companies' challenges into "action." In this seminar, alongside Mr. Ejima, who has led numerous projects locally, we will provide realistic strategies focusing on "what actually happens in practice" rather than textbook knowledge.
