Who We Are

cscout office

Founded in 1997, CScout began by bridging the gap between Europe and the emerging power of Silicon Valley to create new business opportunities. Since coming to Japan in 2001, CScout has been supporting domestic and international companies of all sizes and industries. Our mission is to help our clients better understand the Japanese market and its consumers, create partnerships, and harness new ideas for innovation.

CScout Japan is made up of international professionals from cross-industry backgrounds spanning marketing, media, fashion, design, and innovation consulting. Our key languages are English, Japanese, and German.

Our office (pictured) is in Tokyo, less than ten minutes from either Shibuya or Shinjuku. You can find us digitally on our daily blog and Twitter feed.
