Testimonial by a Minerva fellow
"The Minerva fellowship gave me the opportunity to conduct research on the trending topic of digital transformation in Japan. Through the program, I had the chance to connect with various stakeholders from industries, as well as with the European trade network to discuss domestic market trends. The establishment of the Digital Agency by the Japanese government and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic have accelerated the transition of the public and the private sectors, opening a window of opportunities for European companies offering solutions in the digital domain." Lena Broeckaert – Minerva researcher - 2021-2022
