Why Japan?
Japan combines the world's fourth-largest economy with public infrastructure that works to a standard few countries match. For founders, the recent shift is the interesting part: a country long considered difficult to enter has built a deliberate route in.
Personal safety at a level that changes how cities are used
Public transport that is genuinely the global benchmark
Tradition and invention in the same place
Tea ceremony and temple architecture coexist with robotics and semiconductor research, and not as a contrast for visitors. Both are ordinary parts of the same working culture.
Cultural export at scale
Anime, manga, and games have shaped global popular culture for forty years, and the industries behind them are substantial businesses rather than curiosities.
