This city will host the largest digital nomad conference in Japan
Fukuoka City and Yugyo Inc. will soon host “Colive Fukuoka 2024”, the largest Digital Nomad Conference Japan has seen in 2024.
With the slogan: “Co-create and celebrate a global community in Asia,” this event aims to foster connections between global start-ups and more than 200 international digital nomads in a vibrant environment where participants can learn, share and grow together.
From October 1 to 31, digital nomads and entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to participate in an event packed with countless sessions on a wide range of topics to help you thrive in your industry.
There is a “main week” that runs from October 22 to 31. Booking tickets for this week will get you access to a range of prominent events, including the “COLIVE FUKUOKA2024 World Nomad Conference”.
Here you can meet internationally renowned consultant Marie Kondo, who has been named one of the ‘100 Most Influential People in the World’ by TIME Magazine. She will give a keynote session on October 23.
The conference will also feature CEOs, founders, COOs, community managers, and even a university professor and a famous YouTuber, from more than 15 countries.
Participants will learn about cutting-edge trends and a variety of issues tailored to the needs of today’s digital nomads through the implementation of interactive workshops, panel discussions and more.
But not everything is work. There is also room for fun and games. Participants will also enjoy cultural experiences including city tours and special community-building events to provide “an immersive experience of life in Fukuoka and Kyushu.” And of course a closing Hallowing party!
