US-ATMC Visiting Scholars featured in TECHBLITZ


This past July, US-ATMC Visiting Scholars Takuya Yoshida from The Shizuoka Bank, Ltd. and Hiroaki Kaneko from Hamamatsu Iwata Shinkin Bank spoke at a seminar, “Regional Financial Institutions Promoting Open Innovation in Silicon Valley”, co-hosted by the Fintech Association and TECHBLITZ. At the event they shared their experiences of being in Silicon Valley and at the US-Asia Technology Management Center, what they learned from the innovation ecosystem, and how they apply these lessons to support businesses and startups in their home region of Shizuoka Prefecture. To learn more about what Mr. Yoshida and Mr. Kaneko discussed during the seminar, read TECHBLITZ’S article here (in Japanese): https://techblitz.com/event-report/fintech-association01/. US-ATMC is so thrilled to have had a hand in helping strengthen these global ties!
