 Kyoto is home to a diverse industrial landscape encompassing sectors such as biotechnology, precision machining, robotics, AI, games, and food. The city has achieved recognition for its industrial accomplishments, ranking 49th globally in the Hardware and IoT industries. While Kyoto's startup ecosystem is still emerging compared to other players in Northeast Asia, it is experiencing steady growth. 

 The city actively supports startups through a range of initiatives and organizations. A prime example is the Innovation Hub Kyoto, serving as a central hub that provides support, mentorship, and networking opportunities for entrepreneurs. They offer incubation programs, provide access to co-working spaces, and organize events that foster collaboration and knowledge sharing. 

 The Startup Capital Kyoto initiative, a collaborative effort involving [JETRO Kyoto](https://kyoto.startupblink.com/startup-database/organizations/jetro-kyoto), Kyoto Prefecture, and Kyoto Municipal City, was launched to assist foreign entrepreneurs in establishing their businesses in the city. This initiative provides co-working spaces, support for company establishment, consultations, and referrals to Kyoto's startup ecosystem. 

 The city is also home to top coworking spaces, incubators, and accelerator programs; namely Kyoto Startup Summer School, Space Kante Kyoro, and Voltage VMK. 

 A significant advantage of Kyoto's ecosystem is the collaboration between academia and startups. Prominent universities in the city, including Kyoto University and Kyoto Institute of Technology, actively engage in partnerships, research collaborations, and technology transfer initiatives. This enables startups to access cutting-edge research, tap into specialized expertise, and connect with a pool of talented students. 

 To further support startups, Kyoto aims to attract more venture capital firms and angel investors who can provide vital financial backing at different stages of growth. Investors such as Miyako Capital and Innovation Network Corporation of Japan are actively involved in developing the funding landscape within the city, offering potential avenues for startup financing.
