Tatsuno WORK TRIP, a co-creation workation

Surrounded by mountain forests and with more fireflies flying around than anywhere in Japan, Tatsuno Town co-exists with nature.

Furthermore, there are many idle assets in Tatsuno Town such as empty houses, empty lots, and unused facilities, an opening a variety of players like unique creators, artists, and business people from around the country have seized upon, gathering here to form their own connections and create new projects in this “before the dawn” town.

Why not use a Tatsuno WORK TRIP to co-create new businesses and culture from the local blank space?

■Excellent access from being located right in the middle of Japan. Serves as a hometown in this age that is constantly on the go
“The very center of Japan,” Tatsuno Town is located about 2-3 hours from both the Tokyo metropolitan area and the Chukyo area. This area is ideal for those who want dual residences or a satellite office. It can serve as a base camp for the growing number of multi-site residents in recent years, and serve as a hometown in this age that is constantly on the go.

■Getting involved with projects moving forward locally through “Co-creation Workation”
In Tatsuno Town, many diverse projects move forward daily. For example, the “Tobichi Shopping Street” project involved with re-configuring the shopping street, DIY projects on Japanese traditional houses using vacant houses, the related population project calling in residents from the city to solve problems in the country, and so on. Through workations, Tatsuno Town welcomes new people as partners in co-creating new projects.

■The whole town is an experiment for businesses to solve societal problems. For example, if someone wanted to start a farming IoT support service, they would be introduced to local farmers, and if they wanted to use a vacant house to make a co-working base, they would be directed to a building that suited their needs. Local coordinators respond to any and all needs related to creating social innovation.
