Kishida continued by describing the Web3 sector as “the new form of capitalism” and praising the movement's potential to drive development through the “resolution of social issues.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hagiuda emphasized the importance of “Start Next Innovator” initiatives to expand Japanese-owned Web3 enterprises. To foster Web3 startup companies, the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry is dispatching 1,000 entrepreneurs and students to Silicon Valley over five years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
