KSAC (Kansai Startup Academia Coalition) is a platform to create a world-class startup ecosystem by expanding the base of entrepreneurs in the Kansai region with participation of more than 70 institutions from universities, industry, finance, and local governments in the Kansai region.

KSAC will contribute to the development of an ecosystem by working in an integrated manner to develop human resources with entrepreneurial skills and to create startups in the Kansai region.

KSAC (Kansai Startup Academia Coalition) was established as a central platform to support the creation of university-based startups, together with major universities, industry, finance, and local governments in the Kansai region of Japan, which has big cities such as Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe.

KSAC provides four main functions: GAP fund management, entrepreneurship education, support for digital workshop networks, and also planning and participation in events and exhibitions in and out of Japan to advertise the pre-startup projects. KSAC is producing a large number of projects that are expected to become promising startups in the future. We would like to introduce many of these projects to the global industry and investors.

We sincerely hope to collaborate with incubators, accelerators, venture capitalists around the world to continue to create global-class startups that address global issues. We are very happy if you are interested in partnering with us. Thank you.
