Tokyo Animation Business Accelerator:
Project Outline

Tokyo is a thriving hub of animation production, yet much of its creative output is to be discovered by the global market. The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is committed to bridging this gap by supporting the global expansion of our exceptionally innovative animation studios and creators. Since 2016, our presence at MIFA has been a key part of this mission.

Representing the vibrant animation scene of Tokyo, these talented animation studios and creators offer unique vision and technical expertise presenting significant opportunities for collaboration. We invite you to explore their work, showcasing notable originality and technical skill, and to discuss potential partnerships.
