We empower your success rate
WHAT WE DO
From start-ups to mature companies, each has its own challenges.
Network in Motion is a strategic partner for your company and help you grow every step of the way.
Go-to-Market Strategy
Japan is the world’s 3rd largest economy with a huge buying power, where large scale med-tech players operate, thus it is necessary to make the right preparations before meeting your potential business partners or investors.
In order to be ready to present your technology to potential partners or investors, our team will set forth a Go-to-Market plan that covers the necessary information and data needed for you to be prepared (such as regulatory pathway, KOLs opinion, strategic positioning, etc). In addition, we will support the communication process, as Japanese are very detail oriented, which means that one needs to know how to manage these questions and data sharing.
Israelis doing business in the US and Europe are used to a direct and non-formal discussion with their business counterparts. However Japanese people are conducting very formal business practice, while expecting you to come well prepared with relevant data about Japan, just as you would do your homework when meeting with large scale global firms.
Business Development
We believe a business should always be in motion, striving to create new business opportunities in high probability markets with high returns. To be moving means to create new competitive business opportunities, as well as an additional value to your company’s stakeholders. We believe setting Japan as one of your company’s key target markets can help you reach a world-class position.
Our team of Israelis and Japanese serves you in both locations, while totally eliminating cultural and geographic barriers. Moreover, your company enjoys our vast business network, our professional experience, our deep personal ties with key decision makers in some of the largest Japanese corporations and investors, healthcare organizations and physicians. We can help you create such growth opportunities and act as a one-stop-shop supporting your Japan market entry, by preparing you, setting meetings with potential business partners or investors and optimize your success rate.
Crisis Management
Every business encounters difficulties and obstacles at some point and even more so when doing business in a new, different, foreign market like Japan. We can get you through these challenges, be it regulatory, KOLs relationships, distributor’s management, employment & recruitment matter, legal issues, regulatory and reimbursement activities, among others.
Training – Workshop
You only get one chance to make a first impression and even more so in Japan. So as part of the needed preparations before meeting the first potential partner or investor we suggest you participate in our workshops, lectures or even enjoy a 1 on 1 mentoring of our leadership team, as we will help you be ready to handle your meetings and make the best compression when discussing with potential investors or business partners in Japan.
Events
We know that some of the best ways for a company to catch the attention of local business partners or investors is to take part in a local tech-competition in the target market. Therefore, we have developed ties with local organizations, tech-competitions, among other opportunities where you can take part and advocate your technology to the right people.
What our costumers are saying
For Acoustiguide, a global leader of audio tour software and hardware solutions provider, Japan is naturally one of our most significant and high potential markets. We have been doing business in Japan more than 20 years, yet, managing from abroad poses various challenges for us, thus may require experienced and trustworthy consultants which have a local team in Japan to drive structural and local tailored solutions when challenges occur.
We found these qualities embedded within Network in Motion's team, which provided us with an accurate analysis of our local situation and a clear exit plan to drive our business forward. It was not only because of their resourceful ideas and profound market understanding but mainly thanks to their clear perception of our needs and priorities. Network in Motion's understanding of complex global organizations and the nuance of diverse cultures - business and otherwise - has generated great value on all fronts.
As a small startup, making the right decisions and walk away from the bad ones is crucial. It is even more challenging when considering the Japanese market. We have found Network in Motion to be a valuable partner to help us navigate this market, with a clear overview of Japan’s unique business culture. Ira and Jun simply pushed us to apply to one of the top programs for international companies in Japan, helped us with local barriers and introduced us to potential clients and partners. We can see the fruits of their hard work and looking forward to scale in Japan.
We recently had Ira Prigat speak at an online meeting organized by the department of academic international relations to understand the Japanese business culture. Feedback was off the charts for this great presentation. Ira took the stage (screen) and dazzled us all. He has an ability to read his audience and deliver the energy and messages they need and to integrate theoretical background with practical advices. It was an enlightening lecture in which the audience – faculty, students and graduates – was fully engaged. We encourage our students and graduates to explore new opportunities and hope to further promote academic collaborations between our institution and Japanese partners.
We chosen Network in Motion, since we found Mr. Ira Prigat to be a suitable business person to assist Ecozone in its comercial activities in the Japanese market. The challenge set for Network in Motion is to expand Ecozone's business potential in Japan, by finding additional market niches for Ecozone products, as well as additional partners to significantly increase Ecozone sales volume. They proved to be highly familiar with the Japanese market characteristics & business culture (most important), deep understanding of the business practice in general and in particular with Ecozone’s business needs. Working with Network in Motion’s team, especially with Jun & Ira is both professional and efficient (as well as nice)!
Few weeks ago Ira was a guest lecturer in a networking event of the graduates of our MBA program in Healthcare Innovation at IDC. Ira, who spoke about The Secrets of Japan’s Business Culture was absolutely amazing, he made it so vivid, energetic and informative. Though we thought of it as a teaser, Ira was so fascinating that it went longer, with the audience completely taken by him and texting me during the talk how great he is, asking me to be sure to bring him back for a longer talk. Thank you Ira, and see you soon. – January 20th, 2021
My impression is that Network in Motion enjoys deep acquaintance and extensive network with major enterprises in the Japanese market. When they approach a new project, no matter if they are familiar with the field or not, they made a lot of strategic and investigation work before they approach the desired enterprise: they deeply study the field and product offerings, brain storm with us the available opportunities, share their knowledge with and strongly collaborate in order to reach the optimal, tailor made proposal for the enterprise to fit a win-win strategy for both businesses.
