Explanation of Systems SMEs Can Utilize Immediately: "Subsidies & Grants Utilization Seminar 2026 in Nagasaki" Held on April 21 (Tue)

The Japan Association of Small and Medium Business Owners (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director Tetsuaki Ishiguro) will hold the "Subsidies & Grants Utilization Seminar 2026 in Nagasaki" at Raku Gallery from 10:00 to 11:30 on Tuesday, April 21, 2026. This seminar will explain the subsidies and grants that small and medium-sized corporations should know about, especially with the continued rise in personnel and raw material costs. It will cover everything from how to find schemes applicable to their own company to practical know-how for ensuring successful applications.
In recent years, an increasing number of companies are facing management pressure due to rising personnel costs and raw material prices. In this situation, the government and local authorities offer numerous support schemes to encourage hiring, wage increases, and capital investment by small and medium-sized enterprises. However, the reality is that most companies are not utilizing these valuable schemes due to reasons such as "cannot determine which ones are applicable," "applications seem difficult," or "don't know who to consult." In fact, only 5.5% of companies are utilizing subsidies and grants, indicating a serious information gap where many SMEs are missing out on support they could receive.
To alleviate this gap, this seminar will explain carefully selected subsidies and grants for small and medium-sized corporations. Last year, over 100 lectures were held nationwide, with over 9,000 companies participating, and this time it will be held in Nagasaki. Based on future trends and regional information for Nagasaki Prefecture, concrete measures that can be implemented immediately after the seminar will be provided.
