Articles about Kyoto's IT engineers, companies, and local technology ecosystem.

This category collects articles at the intersection of Kyoto and technology. It covers a wide range of topics relevant to working in IT in Kyoto: local companies, places where engineers can work, participant interviews, and international exchange with Digital Nomad Kyoto.

Miyako de IT has held events in Kyoto since 2019, so every article is grounded in what we have seen locally. Study groups in temples and machiya townhouses, plus partnerships with universities and the Kyoto Economic Center, show how Kyoto-specific resources connect with technology. For a systematic view of changing jobs, salaries, and ways of working in Kyoto, see the Kyoto IT Engineer Guide. Use this category to explore individual topics in chronological order.
