GoConnect Story
Founded with Purpose, Growing with Community
GoConnect was established in early 2020 with a clear mission: to support local businesses during unprecedented challenges. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across Tokyo faced serious threats to their survival.
Our Evolution
What began as a community support initiative has grown into a dynamic online hub GoConnect.jp serving Tokyo’s international residents. Today, in 2025, GoConnect is a trusted source for business and lifestyle content tailored to high-end expatriates living in Japan. From curated guides and expert insights to exclusive listings and events, we aim to enrich the lives of newcomers and long-term residents alike.
