### Subsidies and Grants Utilization Seminar 2026 in Tokyo
Lecturing on the latest information on subsidy and grant systems to compress management costs for SMEs.
Recently, an increasing number of companies are experiencing pressure on their management due to soaring personnel and raw material costs. In this situation, national and local governments have prepared many support systems to encourage SMEs in recruitment, wage increases, and capital investment. However, most companies are unable to utilize these systems due to reasons such as "not being able to judge which ones can be used for our company," "the application process seems difficult," or "not knowing who to consult." In fact, only 5.5% of companies are utilizing grants and subsidies, creating a serious information gap where many SMEs are missing out on the support they could originally receive.
To mitigate this gap, this seminar will explain carefully selected grants and subsidies for SMEs. Last year, we conducted over 100 lectures nationwide with more than 9,000 participants, and this time we will be holding a large-scale event in Tokyo. Based on future trends and regional information in Tokyo, we will provide specific measures that can be practiced immediately after the seminar.
