Toyama Prefecture is located in the central northern part of Honshu, roughly in the center of the Japanese archipelago that extends from north to south.It is surrounded by mountains on three sides to the east, south, and west, and faces Toyama Bay to the north. Melted snow flows from the Tateyama Mountain Range of the Northern Alps in the southeast of the prefecture, and the mineral-rich sea is home to many fish. Toyama City is a compact prefecture with municipalities spread out within a 50km radius around Toyama City, with plenty of secondary transportation such as Toyama city trains, private railways, and sightseeing buses.
On the other hand, small and medium-sized enterprises, which have supported the local economy and employment in Toyama Prefecture, have played an important role in overall economic activities within the prefecture, such as production and distribution. There are many companies that choose to close down even if they are in the black due to a lack of successors, and business closures continue due to the inability to find a successor.
In order to maintain the stability of regional employment and protect the various intellectual assets such as know-how and technology possessed by small and medium-sized businesses, it is an urgent issue to squarely face the problem of a lack of successors.
