Free Online Event - Employee LIVE: Addressing Challenges in Kagoshima City
Overview
On July 30, 2025, the Kagoshima City government will hold an engaging online event named 'Employee LIVE,' aimed at fostering dialogue between municipal employees and private sector companies. This initiative, spearheaded by the Local Revitalization Technology Lab, seeks to tackle pressing community issues through public-private collaboration.
What is Employee LIVE?
Employee LIVE is a unique platform where local government officials can share their insights on current municipal challenges, future visions, and suggestions for collaboration with private enterprises. This event welcomes businesses and individuals who are interested in contributing to local revitalization or are curious about the real needs of local governments.
Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions in real-time via chat, allowing for immediate responses from the officials present. This format engages attendees directly, offering a rare chance for dialogue with government representatives.
Invitation for Business Ideas
Following the event, we will open a call for innovative business proposals aimed at addressing local issues discussed during the session. We encourage creative and practical solutions from private firms that can integrate insights from municipal officials into actionable plans.
Featured Challenges in Kagoshima City
During this special edition of Employee LIVE, officials from Kagoshima City will cover several key topics, including:
1.
Utilization of School Grounds in Sakurajima - With the merging of eight local schools to create a new compulsory education school by April 2026, the future of the vacated school properties remains undecided. We invite ideas to transform these assets into vibrant community resources or business opportunities in the Sakurajima area, known for its tourism potential.
2.
Maximizing the Community Learning Center - The Urban Agriculture Center, which welcomes around 120,000 visitors annually, houses a Learning Center aimed at educating citizens about local agriculture. Despite its facilities, the center faces low usage rates. We're looking for ideas that could boost participation and enhance the center’s appeal.
3.
Revitalizing Vacant Farmland - As Kagoshima City's agricultural sector contends with an aging workforce, the rise of unused farmland poses a challenge. We want to discuss strategies for revitalizing this land and attracting new farmers to sustain our agricultural legacy.
4.
Funding Green Initiatives - Kagoshima City has launched several initiatives promoting green beautification, including a call for sponsors to maintain public flower gardens. However, current sponsorship efforts are falling short. Businesses are invited to propose innovative funding models to sustain these projects and enhance city charm.
