In his remarks, President Prof. Naoshi Sugiyama highlighted one of Nagoya University’s missions: creating more opportunities to connect companies in the Chubu (Central Japan) region with Singapore. Through these connections, companies can gain first-hand exposure to Singapore’s dynamic business environment, growing startup ecosystem, and strong connectivity across Asia.


The gathering provided a valuable opportunity for representatives from the Chubu region and Singapore to strengthen existing relationships and explore new opportunities for collaboration across business, academia, and innovation.


Nagoya University Global Campus (Singapore) looks forward to continuing to build stronger bridges between Chubu and Singapore and contributing to deeper connections between the two regions.
