Congratulations to our student, Yuko Eguchi for making the finals of J-Hatch!
We are so proud of your achievement.
Below is a comment from her.
"On November 15, 2023, JETRO, in collaboration with DMZ, a leading Canadian incubator, hosted J-Hatch, a pitch event for Japanese student entrepreneurs.
I was invited as one of the four pitch finalists. I proposed the creation of a service that provides cancer patients and their families with the support they need to ease their anxiety.
It was a valuable experience to interact with like-minded people from different fields who are passionate about their businesses and sincerely concerned about social issues.
In addition, being able to present my business proposal in front of overseas incubator was a good opportunity for me to think deeply about my future overseas expansion.
Throughout the preparation, I received a lot of support and advice from many people, including faculties, peers at the University of Tsukuba, and other experts.
It was certainly a moment to reinforce my resolve to contribute to a better society in the future.
I would like to express my gratitude to all those involved."
