Explanation of Schemes SMEs Can Immediately Utilize: "Subsidy and Grant Utilization Seminar 2026 in Takamatsu" to be Held on May 26 (Tuesday)

The Japan Small and Medium Business Owners Association (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director Tetsuaki Ishiguro) will hold the "Subsidy and Grant Utilization Seminar 2026 in Takamatsu" at Rexxam Hall (Kagawa Prefectural Hall) on Tuesday, May 26, 2026, from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. This seminar will comprehensively explain subsidies and grants that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) should know about, especially with the ongoing rise in labor and raw material costs. It will cover everything from how to find eligible schemes for your company to practical know-how for ensuring successful applications. Subsidy and Grant Utilization Seminar 2026 in Takamatsu Lecture on the latest information regarding subsidy and grant schemes to reduce management costs for SMEs. Recently, an increasing number of companies are experiencing pressure on their management due to rising costs such as labor and raw materials. In this situation, national and local governments offer numerous support schemes to encourage hiring, wage increases, and equipment investment by SMEs. However, the majority of companies are unable to utilize these valuable schemes due to reasons such as "cannot determine which ones are applicable to our company," "application seems difficult and daunting," or "don't even know who to consult." In fact, only 5.5% of companies are utilizing subsidies and grants, leading to a serious information disparity where many SMEs miss out on support they could otherwise receive. To alleviate this disparity, this seminar will explain carefully selected subsidies and grants for SMEs. Last year, we conducted over 100 lectures nationwide, with over 9,000 participants, and this time it will be held in Takamatsu. We will provide concrete measures that can be immediately implemented after the seminar, taking into account future trends and local information for Kagawa Prefecture. ■ Event Outline Date: May 26 (Tuesday) 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM (Doors open 9:10 AM) Venue: Rexxam Hall (Kagawa Prefectural Hall) 〒760-0030 9-10 Tamamo-cho, Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture 8-minute walk from JR Takamatsu Station Fee: Free URL: https://smb-japan.or.jp/2026-5-26-1/ (Click here to apply for participation) ■ Program ・Don't miss out!
