Explaining Systems SMEs Can Use Immediately: 'Subsidy & Grant Utilization Seminar 2026 in Sapporo' to be held on 6/23 (Tue)

The Japan Small and Medium Business Owners Association will hold the 'Subsidy & Grant Utilization Seminar 2026 in Sapporo' on June 23, 2026 (Tue), from 14:00 to 15:30 at the Sapporo Sunplaza (Sapporo City, Hokkaido). In this seminar, we will explain everything from how to find systems that your company is eligible for, to practical know-how for ensuring successful applications, regarding subsidies and grants that SMEs should know about now as labor and material costs continue to rise. Recently, an increasing number of companies are facing pressure on their management due to rising labor and material costs. While the national and local governments have prepared many support systems, only 5.5% of companies are actually utilizing them, creating a serious information gap. To reduce this gap, this seminar will provide concrete measures that can be implemented immediately after the seminar, based on future trends and regional information in Hokkaido. The capacity is 500 people, and participation is free.
