Kyoto City is arranging tailored tours, which include various opportunities to visit and interact with the local ecosystem. Tours can be arranged to fit a variety of needs from general business interests (i.e., “To learn about Kyoto Tech companies” or “To learn about cutting-edge technologies”) to specific business needs (i.e., “To find joint research partners” or “To find specific product suppliers”).
