島の人のための、宇宙船をつくっている。Building a spacecraft for the islanders.

It's not just a business. It's a cultural installation.

東京に、会社をひとつ。One company, in Tokyo.

Setting up a company in Japan: visa advice, choosing an address, registration, tax partners, Japanese pitch decks and translation — supported all the way through.

HIGHERS CULTURE STUDIOA co-creation space for cultural founders.

Bring a brand concept, a product experiment or a cultural proposal, and incubate it with Tokyo’s local resources, technical partners and platforms — exhibition space, technology and people, articles and media outreach are all here.

売るためではなく、置くために。Not to sell — to be placed there.

As a founder, stage a cultural installation in Tokyo — one with a stance and a spatial language. Music, text and design build a storyline with select shops, so that starting a business becomes a cultural intervention.

Who it’s for —

A brand owner in the founding stage.

A cultural entrepreneur with both ideas and the drive to act.

Someone who wants to set out from Taiwan and land in Tokyo.

Send an idea for a one-to-one conversation. After selection, a three-week consultation period helps things get started in Japan.
