Theme (Continued): Designing the Kumamoto Experience Digital Nomads Will Fall in Love With
Digital nomads — people who work while traveling, free from the constraints of location. What if they arrived in Kumamoto tomorrow?
In our December kickoff event, a diverse group gathered in Kumamoto to envision “the ultimate 20 days experience that digital nomads worldwide would fall in love with.”
For Vol.2, we’re taking that energy online and expanding our reach across Kumamoto and beyond. Whether you’re joining for the first time or continuing from Vol.1, we’ve designed this session so everyone can jump right in. We’ll share highlights from our first event and dive deeper into the conversation.
🎤 Special Lightning Talk “Rural-Urban Nexus: Starting from Hitoyoshi-Kuma”
Speaker: Shunto Kataoka (Aonami LLC)
Introducing the “Digital Nomad Hub Hitoyoshi” initiative launching in the Hitoyoshi-Kuma region of southern Kumamoto. Learn about a new model connecting rural communities with global perspectives, plus the latest updates on “ALOT (Asagiri Local Office & Telework)” , a facility that serves as a coworking space, satellite office, and community hub.”
This event is for you if…
■You want to leverage your global experience to contribute to local communities
■You’re passionate about co-creating new projects and driving innovation
■You want to shape new global challenges together with like-minded people
