From discovery to deciphering

Former editions

Thanks to these meetings, we have gone beyond the ecosystem discovery stage of the previous editions.

Discovery and findings

On October 9th, 2019, the SCC launched its 1st edition at Station F around the following question: How can we succeed in building up a French-Japanese co-creation environment? The answers to this question have first helped sketch out the outline of innovation in France and Japan. Many testimonies have highlighted the strong and weak points of both ecosystems, as well as how they complement each other.

Deciphering

For our 2nd edition, we wanted to adapt to the unusual context resulting from the pandemic by providing numerous sources of information on France-Japan innovation. Fifteen "SCC Tuesday" webinars or so tackling various topics were held between July and November 2020. The goal was to start a preliminary deciphering of innovation ecosystems by giving the floor to stakeholders from both countries. This series of webinars closed with a big digital event which gathered over 160 connected participants.
