THE EXPERIENCE
Open a laptop on tatami in a temple hall, work alongside another engineer in a machiya townhouse, or trade practical knowledge at a university or civic venue.
Some sessions are mostly quiet work; others include short talks or conversation. The format changes, but participants can choose how much they engage.

Kyoto's local spaces are part of the community experience rather than decorative backdrops.

Repeated meetings make it easier for relationships to grow without forced networking.
WHY KYOTO
Kyoto has technology companies, universities, research institutions, startups, and long-established local businesses, but people across those worlds do not automatically meet repeatedly.
Miyako de IT keeps that point of contact open through recurring study groups, co-working sessions, and community events.
FIRST VISIT
A mokumoku-kai is a co-working study session where each participant brings their own work or learning task and shares the space without forced networking.
VOICES
“I was nervous at my first event, but everyone welcomed me warmly. It has become something I look forward to every month.”

“Writing code in a temple creates a different kind of concentration. It is an experience that feels distinctly Kyoto.”

“The conversation includes careers as well as technology. Other engineers understand parts of the experience that are otherwise hard to explain.”

FOR ORGANIZATIONS
Co-hosted events, technical communication, education, and local collaboration are handled through a separate partnership path so participant guidance stays simple.
COME. MEET. MAKE.
