Support for foreign nationals who wish to start up business in Japan

However, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) offers alternative way to obtain this status of residence called "Program to increase foreign entrepreneurs" which would lower the hurdle for prospective foreign entrepreneurs. In this program, foreign applicant can receive status of residence of "Business manager" for six months even if aboved-mentioned conditions are not met, if business plans and other application documents are submitted to the TMG and the TMG confirms that the applicant has prospects for fulfilling the conditions within that six months. (This program can be applied for start-up business in only Tokyo.)

I would like to support these procedures for prospective foreign entrepreneurs to obtain this status of residence of "Business manager" by using this program. I also would like to support foreign nationals who already has stayed in Japan and wish to start up business in Japan.
