Japan's Largest Startup Event for Under-25s Announced for Fukuoka and Tokyo

Overview

F Ventures LLP has announced the upcoming dates for "TORYUMON 2026 REBOOT," one of Japan's largest startup events targeted at the under-25 generation. Since its inaugural event in 2017, this milestone marks the 25th time the event has been held. The Fukuoka session is scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2026, followed by the Tokyo session on Saturday, December 19, 2026.

Purpose and Features

Under the theme of "REBOOT," the event provides an in-person networking opportunity for students and young entrepreneurs interested in starting businesses, helping them take their next big step forward. The Tokyo venue will be held at Bellesalle Shibuya First, featuring sessions led by consumer-facing (toC) entrepreneurs, global founders, and AI engineers, alongside a pitch contest exclusively for the under-25 generation. TORYUMON serves as a vibrant community bringing together aspiring and early-stage young founders, with a track record of producing student entrepreneurs who successfully secured seed funding through connections made at the event.

Management and How to Participate

The event is primarily organized by student interns from Kyushu University and F Ventures. Registration for attendees and applications for the U25 pitch competition are already open for both venues. It promises to be an invaluable platform for the next generation of young entrepreneurs to network directly with prominent founders, investors, and political figures.
