    The New Japan: Beyond Abenomics

    Kotaro Tamura, Motoaki Saito, Masahiko Shibayama, Keiko Tashiro, Adrian Zecha

    Recent high-level engagements and government reforms in Japan are targeting critical economic shifts, including the acceptance of foreign labor in caregiving sectors and the mobilization of corporate cash reserves exceeding 125% of GDP. These structural changes aim to reverse demographic decline by leveraging inbound tourism growth and fostering a new venture ecosystem driven by engineers leaving traditional giants. Despite progress in governance compliance, panelists emphasize that deepening cultural openness and addressing language barriers remain essential to unlocking the nation's substantial investment potential in technology and manufacturing.
