Ehsan's Market Analysis

Tokyo is an underrated market for data & analytics. While most attention goes to Silicon Valley, Tokyo's 4,200+ startups are building companies adapted to local market dynamics. The $95K average salary creates interesting unit economics for bootstrapped and capital-efficient companies. My recommendation: start with a niche, own it, then expand.
