Building in Cars & Motorsport
Find drivers and creators for your mobility or EV product. Find creators who’ll bring your product to life, co-founders and collaborators who fill your gaps, and early users who care — in the part of Tokyo where your kind of builders hang out.
Car culture is a Tokyo export.
From Daikoku parking-area meetups to drift legends and kei-car tuning, Japanese car culture has fans everywhere. It’s a culture of builders, photographers and storytellers.
In CollaboTokyo, cars and motorsport live in Odaiba with mobility and future tech. Builders, brands and car creators meet for builds, shoots and launches.
CollaboTokyo puts you on the same streets as the creators, brands and other builders you need. Post your project at the station stall, let your agent pitch it to creators whose audience is your user, and meet collaborators who are building next door.
