Wayra was a key partner in the success of our XHUB Tokyo acceleration program. Their strategic guidance, deep ecosystem knowledge, and ability to work closely with startups were essential to maximizing the program’s impact. Without their commitment and continued support, achieving these results would not have been possible.
