[Register Now!] Announcement of ASEAN Real-Tech Startup Conference co-organized by Leave a Nest and Real Tech Holdings on the 2nd of June 2020

     Leave a Nest (Representative: Dr. Yukihiro Maru, HQ: Tokyo, Japan) and Real Tech Holdings (Representative: Akitaka Fujii, HQ: Tokyo, Japan)  together will be hosting “Tech Planter Global Conference” on the 2nd of June. The selected 12 startups from 6 ASEAN countries will gather to pitch their innovative businesses in solving deep-issues in ASEAN region. This event will not only build a connection with the 12 startups but will also serve as a guide and an overview of the fast-growing Real Tech startups in the ASEAN region to understand the current trends. Due to the situation in each country with the COVID-19, this conference will be held in online format.

     Leave a Nest Group has developed and operated Southeast Asia's largest platform for discovering and nurturing Real Tech startups through “TECH PLANTER”. It has expanded to 6 ASEAN countries (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam) with a total of 568 teams (186 companies) participating. With over 50 ASEAN universities and government agencies as partners, it is expected to become an ecosystem that connects startups in the region with Japanese big corporates and investors. In addition, from 2020, we have founded Real Tech Global Fund (managed by Real Tech Holdings) to accelerate and actively support startups in SouthEast Asia, and also with the entry into the Japanese market.

     In this event, we have selected two teams from each country that were nominated as the finalists of TECH PLANTER held in each country since 2017. All 12 startups have continued to grow their business after participating in our Demo Day, and are exploring Japanese market by collaboration with Japanese companies. The selected startups cover 8 technology areas (Deep-Tech, Bio-Tech, Agri-Tech, Eco-Tech, Med-Tech, Food-Tech, Marine-Tech and Care-Tech). We are sure that this occasion is to be a great opportunity for our innovation community (including startups, VCs, and incubators) to understand the various issues and solutions across ASEAN.
