(located in Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Ryunosuke Hidaka), is excited to announce that we have surpassed a total of 250 participants since our inception. As we reach this significant milestone, we are also opening a limited recruitment for our 6th cohort starting this July.Comments from Representative:- Ryunosuke Hidaka, Representative of U25 Entrepreneur Share House“As we mark the half-year milestone since the launch of U25 Entrepreneur Share House, we are thrilled to have crossed 250 participants. Initially, we started with little to no knowledge or connections in the startup community, even lacking in content. However, with the collaboration of our participants and their word-of-mouth recommendations, we have rapidly expanded. With the invaluable assistance from mentors, venture capitalists, and experienced entrepreneurs, we managed to achieve this landmark. We are committed to creating an environment that fosters young entrepreneurial challenges, aiming to churn out unicorn companies from this share house. A big thank you to all stakeholders for your continuous support.”About U25 Entrepreneur Share House:With the mission “Making Entrepreneurship a Lifestyle,” our share house primarily targets entrepreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs under 25, offering a “Live-in Entrepreneur Development Program.” Utilizing vacant share houses and hotels affected by the pandemic, we have been operating the share house with 30 to 50 young individuals since December 2020. In about six months, we have crossed 250 participants. Additionally, we are coordinating event planning and Workcation programs for U25 entrepreneurs in collaboration with corporations and local governments. This time, we are opening a limited recruitment for 10 individuals for the 6th cohort in July.Content Introduction:- Networking with Entrepreneurs/VCs:Regular networking events, including those between participants, with peers, venture capitalists, and angel investors, are organized.

Unable to take the first step towards entrepreneurship, being with entrepreneurs of the same age 24/7 naturally helped me take that step. 'I don’t know what to do now, but I have the passion,' 'I want to do something but can’t take the first step,' I want people like this to use this service. Being here long-term provides feedback compared to my past self, which is a unique point I would recommend!"(GAKUWARI Representative: Mr. Shunsuke Saito)"Since joining the U-25 Entrepreneur Sharehouse, I’ve felt steady growth and gradually gained confidence. The field may be different, but being surrounded by many people who are seriously engaged in their business motivates me to work harder, and having daily business-related conversations is also interesting. I want people who are still at the idea stage, or those who feel challenges towards something and want to take action but don’t know how to approach it, to definitely come here. People who feel uncomfortable or find it hard to live in society due to dissatisfaction, I think it’s quite suitable for them, lol."(Soso Inc. CEO: Ms. Akari Maeda))New Mentors/Supporters Joining:We are delighted to announce the addition of several mentors and supporter to our initiative, including legal advisor Hinata Ohshima (Nakamura, Kadota, Matsumoto Law Office), and engineering supporters Ryuto Ogino (Freelance Engineer) and Takuya Ohashi (CTO, Tripia Inc.).Comments from new Mentors/Supporters:【Comment from Professor Oshima】Now a highly recognized corporation surpassing a market capitalization of 2 trillion USD, Apple was a company established in 1976 by a modest group of three ambitious individuals, including Steve Jobs. Many impactful businesses around the globe had a period where a few people, or sometimes even a single individual, tackled challenges tirelessly, often forgetting basic necessities like sleep and food. This hasn't changed; entrepreneurs are continuously required to tackle challenges head-on. In the Entrepreneur Sharehouse, despite varying missions and industrial challenges, young individuals sharing a common ambition come together. They are also supported by a strong network of mentors. It's exciting to think that world-changing businesses could emerge from this environment. As a legal expert, I am humbled to offer my support to everyone here.【Comment from Mr. Ogino】The Entrepreneur Sharehouse is filled with individuals seriously facing the challenge of sparking unprecedented innovation and changing the world, creating a very exciting atmosphere. As a supporter, I provide feedback to help swiftly materialize the ideas born here, and sometimes join the teams as an engineer. I look forward to creating services that contribute to society together.【Comment from Mr. Ohashi】Originally, while living in the U25 Entrepreneur Sharehouse for about three months, I had the privilege to contribute to the product development of several teams. Witnessing the tremendous speed at which projects advanced, I found myself wanting to be involved in more revolutionary products. To genuinely produce unicorn companies from this Sharehouse, I am committed to providing full support in initial technology and development. Drawing from my development experience across a broad range of industry domains (e-commerce, real estate, sports, job hunting, caregiving, travel, hospitality, etc.), I aim to advance 'more essential development characteristic of startups'. I am looking forward to being involved in everyone’s products.Facility Information:- IMANO TOKYO HOSTELLocated just a 3-minute walk from Shinjuku 3-chome Station, it features a cafe bar on the first floor and is bustling with freelancers and foreigners.Address: 5-12-2 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 160-0022Phone: (+81)3-5362-7161Website: https://imano.jp/shinjuku/ja/Operated by: AB Akomo Inc.Plan:Period: 7/1 - 7/31- Dormitory Plan:2,500 yen: 1 night15,000 yen: 1 week25,000 yen: 2 weeks45,000 yen: 1 month(Short-term stays of several days are also available)Eligibility:1.
