This program will be held simultaneously at two locations in Tottori and Tokyo, with the hope of discovering not only those living in Tottori Prefecture, but also those living in Tokyo who want to start a business or work in the region.

《Comment from Mr. Notoji, Industrial Future Creation Division, Tottori Prefecture》
Not only people who want to start a business in Tottori Prefecture or other regions, but also people who have not thought about starting a business, but want to jump out of their current life and try something new, or who want to make a service like this into reality. This is a program that we would like you to participate in! Because Tottori Prefecture is the prefecture with the smallest population, everyone has the potential to play a leading role. Would you like to seize the opportunity to become the brightest star in your region by starting a business that only you can do through programming?

https://gsacademy.jp/
“G’s ACADEMY” is an engineer and entrepreneur training school established by Digital Hollywood in April 2015 with the theme of “nurturing GEEKs who will change the world.” This concept has resonated with the school, and approximately 80% of those who enroll are aspiring to start a business or seek employment at a venture company.
We have created miraculous stories such as people who were complete beginners in programming when they entered the school, but by the time they graduated they had launched a series of services and succeeded in raising funds from VC shortly after graduation, and now we are a community of about 2,000 entrepreneurs and engineers. is growing to.

In addition, in order to accommodate the large number of aspiring entrepreneurs, we have established an incubation institution called “D ROCKETS,” which allows investments of up to 5 million yen. By creating a chemical reaction between entrepreneurs and engineers, we are contributing to “creating services from Japan that will change the world.”
Furthermore, Digital Hollywood University, the operating body, ranks 13th in the nation in the number of university-launched ventures established (according to the 2020 University-Started Venture Survey (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry)), and has produced a large number of entrepreneurs.
