Feature 2: Support for Sales Network Expansion through Business Matching
Support for Sales Network Expansion through Business Matching
This feature introduces the business matching (business fairs and crowdfunding) initiatives we use to meet the need for sales network expansion.
Business Fairs
We actively hold large business fairs in the Tokyo metropolitan area and individual business fairs aimed at major buyers and manufacturers, helping enterprises expand their sales network.
By drawing on our network and that of our customers as well as providing opportunities to meet new business partners, we assist customers to tackle business challenges such as increasing sales.
Crowdfunding
Since our operation partnership with CyberAgent Crowd Funding, Inc. in May 2016, we have met needs for new product development, sales network expansion and providing funding procurement methods through “Makuake,” the purchasing-based crowdfunding site operated by the aforementioned company.
So far, ¥34,838 thousand in project and funding procurement has been generated through the Bank in 27 projects.
