Business events
Run networking nights, workshops and office hours. Claim a plot anywhere in Tokyo, pick a building and a room — a conference hall, a café, a gallery, a pop-up market — brand it, and open the doors. People walk in, sit down, talk and present. Free.
Every business starts as a conversation.
Japanese business runs on relationships: introductions, meishi exchanged with two hands, and the long dinner before the deal. The internet made it faster to reach people, but not easier to build trust.
In CollaboTokyo, business lives in Shinjuku. Founders, operators, advisors, agencies and B2B creators meet in towers, side streets and lantern-lit alleys.
On CollaboTokyo, your event is a building on a real-feeling street. Guests walk in, see who’s there, grab a seat near the stage, slip off to a side table for a private call, and wander out into a district full of people who share the topic.
What Event hosts & community organisers come here to do
What you can get done in Business — and how the city helps.
A venue that feels like a place
Pick a pop-up, tent, container, glass pavilion, dome or machiya, then a room inside: meeting room, conference or lecture hall, café, coworking, gallery or market.
Get the right people to show up
Host in the district where your topic lives, so people already exploring it walk past your sign. Share a link that previews beautifully and remind guests before you start.
Run the show smoothly
Add your team as admins or staff, put slides on the main stage, run a built-in video call and open side rooms for breakouts.
Keep the community going after
Guests become contacts. Your spot’s open chat and forum keep the conversation alive until the next one.
Where you’ll live: Shinjuku
Run networking nights, office hours and career fairs in a meeting room or café.
