Announcement of Finalists and Lightning Talk Teams for TECH PLANTER Singapore 2026!
Leave a Nest’s vision is “Advancing Science and Technology for Global Happiness.” To realize this, we drive TECH PLANTER, a flagship program launched in 2014 to support deep-tech startups across Japan and six ASEAN countries.
Through TECH PLANTER, startups gain access to prototyping support, IP strategy, talent, market expansion, and investment opportunities. The platform also connects startups with established corporations, particularly from Japan, to foster meaningful collaboration.
Our goal is to build a cohesive and robust deep-tech ecosystem that can address pressing global and societal challenges.
With this in mind, we are pleased to announce the finalists and lightening talk presenters for the day.
