Shibuya Startup Oasis

What Shibuya Startup Oasis does

Shibuya Startup Oasis is a Tokyo-based open community co-working space and startup studio founded in April 2024 by Hashida Kazuhide and operated under BOOT Inc. The core offering is a free, drop-in physical workspace near Shibuya Station providing WiFi, power, monitor-equipped seats, two reservable meeting rooms, and casual counter areas for entrepreneurs, angel investors, VCs, and startup-adjacent individuals. Membership registration is the gating mechanism, and the space functions as the company's primary acquisition channel, with members drawing in additional entrepreneurs through word-of-mouth.

Layered on top of the physical community, the company runs a structured startup studio with multiple programs: an 8-week acceleration cohort (3 cohorts completed, 5 founders each), an OASIS-EIR 6-month residency (selected for Tokyo SUTEAM 2024), recurring angel-matching events (5 sessions, ~100 entrepreneurs and 50 angels, 3-5 matches per event), 15-minute one-on-one consultations with Hashida (~20 slots/month), and a co-founding audition program (first cohort recruiting April 2026) in which Hashida himself commits as co-founder. The adjacent JUNGLE share office (33,000-49,500 JPY/month for share or fixed seats) plus optional business registration (11,000 JPY/month) and mail handling (5,500 JPY/month) provides a monetized workspace tier.

Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring corporate and individual sponsorships (individual tiers at 100K/250K/500K JPY; multiple Gold/Silver/Bronze corporate sponsors), JUNGLE share office subscriptions, and venue/event rental. An affiliated VC, OASIS FUND, was established in December 2024 by Hashida alongside co-representative Takahagi Hiroyuki, creating a vertically integrated funnel from idea-stage community member to seed-stage portfolio company. The company is bootstrapped rather than venture-backed, with no disclosed funding rounds and a 5-person founding team.

Direct peers

• Creww: Japan's largest open-innovation platform connecting startups with large corporations, plus acceleration programs. Comparable to OASIS in serving early-stage Japanese founders and facilitating corporate-startup and founder-investor connections.
• co-ba shibuya: Community co-working space network in Shibuya and other Tokyo locations designed for entrepreneurs, freelancers, and small teams. Directly comparable to OASIS's Shibuya-based free community space and JUNGLE share office concept for startup-adjacent members.
• Techstars: Global accelerator running 13-week cohort programs with mentor networks and demo-day investor matching. Comparable to OASIS on the structured acceleration, mentorship, and investor-introduction model, though at much larger international scale.
• Plug and Play Japan: Global accelerator and venture fund with a Japan platform running cohort-based programs, corporate-startup matching, and co-working space in Tokyo. Directly comparable to OASIS as a startup community hub combining structured programs, investor exposure, and a physical space.
• Open Network Lab: Digital Garage-operated accelerator running cohort-based programs for early-stage startups in Japan, with demo days and investor matching. Comparable to OASIS as a structured Japanese accelerator focused on seed-stage founders and investor introductions.

Emerging players

• B Dash Camp: Japan-focused invite-only startup conference and community that connects seed- and early-stage founders with investors and operators. Comparable to OASIS in cultivating Japan's seed-stage founder-investor network through events and curated community.

Regional players

Broad incumbents

• WeWork Japan: Large global co-working operator with multiple Tokyo locations, offering flexible workspace, meeting rooms, and community events. Comparable to OASIS on the workspace and community surface, but at much greater scale and without OASIS's seed-stage program focus.
