Topic

“首都圏のWebビジネスのスタートアップ　ーシリコンバレーと比較した成長要因分析ー”

Abstract

　日本では、欧米や中国に比べてユニコーン（評価額10億米ドル以上で非上場のスタートアップ企業）が少ないという指摘は多いが、Webビジネスにおいては、首都圏はシリコンバレーと比べて成長性に大きな遜色はない。日本の問題点は、成長後期におけるベンチャーキャピタルからの投資額が少なく、製品サービスのハイテクレベルがシリコンバレーに劣ることである。しかしながら、日本発の新規性の高いサービスが生み出され、成長している実態はある。今後、AIの伸長や若い世代の活発な起業によって勢いを増すことは間違いない。
