Odaiba isn’t recruiting yet. You can still apply — we keep every application on file.

The opportunity
The most interesting projects often don’t fit an existing category. In CollaboTokyo, Odaiba is the waterfront for innovation: launches at Tokyo Big Sight, robotics in Daiba, mobility in Aomi.
A founder can make it the place for ambitious experiments — and the people who want to fund, test and build them.
Ideas to try
Examples to get you thinking — not a checklist.
Prototype showcases
Unfinished is welcome: show what you’re building and why.
Future-of-X debates
Friendly, structured debates about where a field is heading.
Maker challenges
Build something physical or digital around a shared constraint.
Research reading groups
Papers explained by people who can build with them.
Open experiments
Community-run experiments with public results.
Make it your own
The themes for Odaiba are a starting point, not a restriction. If your community crosses into other topics, follow it.
You decide the formats, the schedule and the culture. Try things, drop what doesn’t work, and double down on what does.
Your district. Your community. Your vision.

The fine print, up front
- This is an independent, revenue-share-based opportunity — not a salaried position or employment.
- Revenue is not guaranteed. What a district earns depends on many things, including the community you build.
- Shares are calculated on eligible net platform revenue, as defined in your individual agreement.
- Leading a district doesn’t mean owning it: there is no permanent district ownership or perpetual revenue right. Terms are set in your agreement, starting with a 90-day pilot.

Illustrative onlyAn illustration, not a forecast or a guarantee. Actual revenue and earnings depend on your district’s performance and the terms of your individual agreement.
Who would be a great fit?
- A maker or researcher who organizes demo days or reading groups
- An innovation lead who wants a community beyond their company
- A futurist writer or podcaster with a curious audience
