Chapter 25 in History of Innovative Entrepreneurs in Japan, 2023, pp 221-224 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This section surveys the main factors underlying Japan’s economic stagnation over the past thirty years: dysfunctional management beset by “investment restraint”; local bank panics in 1997–1998; the global Great Recession in 2008; the massive earthquake and tsunami in 2011; and Japan’s demographic decline. Four successful entrepreneurs who were nevertheless successful during this period—Kazuo Inamori, Toshifumi Suzuki, Tadashi Yanai and Masayoshi Son—are each analyzed here for their innovative contributions.
