Japan's First Career Festival for Global Experiences

Beyond Technologies Inc. has announced an exciting event set for the summer of 2026—the LinkedIn Student Career Week 2026. This remarkable career festival will take place from July 20th (Monday) to July 25th (Saturday), featuring both online platforms and a physical event culminating in Tokyo at WeWork Hibiya Fort Tower.

This festival emerges from the successful reception of the linked event held in spring 2026. Based on the concept of "by students with global experiences, for students with global experiences," our dedicated interns—current international students and those with studying abroad backgrounds—are at the helm of planning and operations.

Event Concept — A Festival to Create Future Global Careers

The core aim of this event is to empower participants to:
1. Know Yourself: Deeply understand oneself to clarify strengths and values in the context of global careers.
2. Explore Opportunities: Navigate global opportunities using LinkedIn, the world’s leading career tool.
3. Act for Future: Create a platform for aspiring students and businesses to connect, fostering mutual understanding and progress toward a successful future.

Why This Summer? — A New Initiative

For years, Beyond Technologies has facilitated connections for Japanese students studying abroad or in regional institutions, creating diverse employment opportunities for over 5,000 students annually. Recognizing disparities due to geographical and informational gaps, we aim to address this challenge head-on.

Both the spring and fall career events held in partnership with LinkedIn attracted thousands of participants, generating significant LinkedIn activity and positive feedback from students and corporations alike. Building on that momentum, we are proud to introduce this specialized career festival dedicated to students with global experiences. We believe the synergy of returning students and LinkedIn’s powerful networking capabilities will yield unparalleled opportunities.

• - Students Returning from Abroad: Those temporarily back in Japan, ready to leverage their experiences at a pivotal moment in their career.
