Phoenixi Co Ltd is a Kyoto-based residential incubator for social intrapreneurs and entrepreneurs. To nurture entrepreneurial talent and help them make impact business ideas into reality, Phoenixi runs a 4-month immersive incubation program at "toberu", a Phoenixi facility designed to facilitate innovation, offering two types of fellowships: Sponsored and Independent.

Sponsored Fellows are intrapreneurs sent from Phoenixi's sponsors (mostly major Japanese corporations) on a mission to develop new impact businesses within.

Independent Fellows are early-stage entreprenuers, university faculty and students, etc who aspire to build or grow their social startups.

Through its 4-month incubation program, Phoenixi provides both Fellows with: A) a place to live and work; B) skill building workshops; C) pitch practice sessions; D) one-on-one mentoring and coaching; E) ample networking opportunities across sectors and backgrounds; F) toberu Fund eligibility; and G) even weekday breakfast and dinner by its Chef-in-Residence (!) so the Fellows can focus on business development and have time to chat and unwind with other Fellows on a daily basis.

Phoenixi was co-founded by three women -- Dr Sachiko Kuno, CEO Yukiko Hasitera, and Izumi Kobayashi -- based on the Halcyon model. Halcyon, co-founded by Dr Sachiko Kuno and Kate Goodall, is a Washington DC-based residential incubator that "accelerates the impact-driven future of business" through an array of incubation programs and impact investing.

Since its inception in 2019, Phoenixi has supported 71 (37 Sponsored, 34 Independent) Fellows in nine cohorts. For further details, please see: https://www.phoenixi.co.jp/c10-flyer-independent_en/
