Recently, KUISs held a conference as part of its grant from the Japanese government to design a curriculum to foster student entrepreneurship. This overseas joint project involved universities from five countries (Australia, UK, India, Canada and Japan), including domestic partners from the Kobe Design University and Miyazaki International College. 10 Students from KUISs and Miyazaki International College received entrepreneurship training for 10 days at the Western Sydney University in Australia. Later, other 24 students from overseas and domestic partner universities participated in an entrepreneurship training program for 11 days in Kobe. At a March 24th Conference, 32 students showcased what they learned about entrepreneurship and startup ecosystems by making a “start-up pitch” presentation which explained their new business idea, analyzed their market competitors, and outlined their operational strategy moving forward. The total number of the participants marked 71 including faculty members and guests.
