The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) has launched a new initiative called the “J-Startup” program, announced on June 11, 2018, aiming to incubate internationally competitive startup companies and encourage them to provide new value to the rest of the world through their innovative technologies and business models. As part of this program, METI will select promising startups and the public and private sectors will unite their efforts to provide them with intensive support measures, including those for their business development overseas.
In 2018, around 10,000 startups were reviewed for this program, and only 92 were selected to participate. Kyulux was among the chosen startups, further defining it as the one of the growing startups in Japan.
