We connect Japanese companies with vetted Czech and European business partners – and Czech companies with the right counterparts in Japan. No databases. No cold lists. Personal introductions backed by deep market knowledge and cultural understanding.
Investment agencies help you set up an office. Trade fairs give you a booth. But when a Japanese company needs a reliable distributor in Central Europe, or a Czech manufacturer wants to find a Japanese technology partner – there's no one to call.
Cold outreach doesn't work in Japan – and it barely works in Europe either. The companies you need to reach don't respond to generic emails. They respond to trusted introductions from people they already know.
That's exactly what Czech Japan Hub provides.
Our Business Matching service works like a trusted advisor, not a search engine. We take the time to understand your business, your goals, and the kind of partner that will actually move the needle – then we open the right doors.
You tell us what you're looking for – a distributor, a technology partner, a JV prospect, a supplier. We learn your business, your sector, and your criteria in detail.
We identify candidates from our member network, industry contacts, and partner organisations across Czechia, Japan, and Europe. Every candidate is vetted for relevance, reliability, and readiness.
We make the introduction personally – with context, with credibility, and with cultural sensitivity. In Japan, who introduces you matters as much as what you sell. In Europe, a warm referral opens doors that cold emails never will.
We stay involved through the early stages of the relationship – facilitating meetings, providing cultural guidance, and helping both sides navigate the differences in business etiquette, decision-making, and expectations.
You've decided Europe is your next market – but where do you start? Czechia is your smart entry point: competitive costs, central location, a strong Japanese business community, and full EU market access. We find you the Czech and European partners who fit your strategy:
Japan is the world's fourth-largest economy – but it rewards patience and the right connections. We connect you with Japanese partners who match your ambitions:
The Czech market itself has 10.9 million consumers. But Czechia's real value lies in what it opens up: a gateway to 450 million consumers across the European Union. From Czechia, you reach Germany in 3 hours, Austria in 2, Poland in 4. Over 130 million consumers sit within a single day's drive.
Czech Japan Hub helps you build your European strategy from this central position. We connect you not only with Czech partners, but with our growing network across Germany, Austria, Poland, Slovakia, and beyond.
Every introduction is made by a real person who knows both sides. We don't send you a spreadsheet of 50 companies – we introduce you to 3 that actually fit.
We understand how Japanese companies evaluate partners and how Czech firms negotiate. We bridge the cultural gap so first meetings become lasting partnerships.
Our member network includes established Czech and Japanese firms across construction, advanced technologies, food & beverage, creative industries, and more. You're not meeting strangers – you're meeting fellow Hub members.
From the first introduction to contract negotiation, we stay involved. Our Japan Desk and Czech Desk provide trilingual support throughout the process – in Czech, English, and Japanese.
Tell us what you're looking for. Business Matching is available to all Hub members as part of their membership – and as a standalone service for non-members exploring the Czech-Japan corridor.
Whether you're a Czech company eyeing Japan, a Japanese firm exploring Europe, or looking for the right business partner on either side – we're here to help.
