I have listened to this podcast when I lived in Japan (2017-2020), and today I started to listen new chapters too. The quality hasn’t changed a bit. Keep them coming and good luck!

I first started listening to the Disrupting Japan podcasts back in 2015 when I was at a loss on how to understand Japan. I came from Canada with the naive assumption that I could duplicate my successful business model here in Japan. Wow was I wrong. more

I love to listen to this podcast, although I live and work in China, therefore have no direct involvment with the startup-scene in Japan. However, Mr. Romero is very knowledgable and brings guests from various industries, with interesting stories and backgrounds. It gives me very good impression regarding how does Japanese culture influence the whole idea of creating own business and helps me reflect over some topics I see in the companies surrounding me as well.
