A bit sad Japanese cies do product trials and launch outside Japan. Correction. I feel some enlightenment on Japanese culture and economics. It seems innovation in Japan is about trying something outside the blessed land, succeed there or just get noticed with a "come back". It looks more like a crusading abroad campaign mechanism. There are counterexamples like the Walkman, Nintendo products, and perhaps some mangas and Miyazaki and Shinkai, but solid examples too. Takeshi "Beat" Kitano was unknown in Japan before his merry Christmas with David Bowie. A few local clothes brands were started in Hawaii, still a common trick these days. Wax on, wax off. https://solarfoods.com/the-japanese-food-company-ajinomoto-launches-solein-powered-pastries-in-singapore/
