When DIP Corporation, which operates a job information site, summarized the ranking of the number of entrepreneurs by university, it was found that the University of Tokyo was ranked first.Keio University is in second place, and Waseda University is in third place. Universities that are actively promoting entrepreneurship are ranked high.
The survey was conducted by the editorial department of "Startup Times" operated by Dip, targeting people who started businesses while enrolled in universities as of April 2019, and classified them by the service category of the university and company they are enrolled in.
According to the report, the number of entrepreneurial companies by university is 1 at Tokyo University, 14 at Keio University, 9 at Waseda University, 7 at Ritsumeikan University, 4 at Kinki University, Tsukuba University, and Rikkyo. This was followed by two universities, Kansai Gakuin University, Kyoto University, Kyushu University, Tohoku University, Toyo University, Doshisha University, Nara Advanced Science and Technology Graduate University, Nagoya University, and Meiji University.
In the category of entrepreneurial services, "BtoB / contracted" was the top 13 companies, followed by "media" 10 companies and "human resources" 7 companies. There are 19 companies in total for "contract development" and "research and development", and there is a remarkable movement to return the specialized knowledge cultivated at the university such as AI (artificial intelligence) technology to business.
The editorial department thinks that the establishment is progressing in proportion to the name recognition of the university, but the top three schools are all focusing on entrepreneurship development programs, and it seems that this effect is also being produced. ..
