— TIU Impact Next

What started as a small student community at TIU is now representing students on one of Asia’s biggest global innovation stages.

TIU Impact Next proudly served as an official Ambassador of SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026 and Student Partner of ITAMAE — a Tokyo Metropolitan Government initiative connecting students with entrepreneurship, innovation, and the global startup ecosystem.

Among many university student communities, TIU Impact Next was one of the communities selected to have a booth at SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026, where we represented our projects, ideas, and student innovation ecosystem to founders, startups, investors, global visitors, and students from around the world.

For us, this was more than just participating in an event.

It was proof that students can build real impact beyond classrooms.
That ideas from students can reach global stages.
And that a student-led community from Tokyo International University can stand alongside innovators from around the world.

If you are a student who wants to build, create, innovate, network, and explore opportunities beyond university life — TIU Impact Next is the place for you.

Impact Starts Here.

TIU Impact Next MEMBER SPOTLIGHT - Meet Yujiro

From local tournaments in Japan to one of the world’s biggest international esports stages — Yujiro recently represented himself at the Pokémon Europe International Championships (EUIC) 2026 held at ExCeL London, UK.

EUIC is one of the largest and most competitive Pokémon tournaments globally, second only to the Pokémon World Championships. This year’s Nintendo Switch Video Game Master Division became the biggest in history, featuring 1,455 players from around 50 countries.

Competing internationally for the very first time, Yujiro achieved an impressive result: 135th place out of 1,455 global competitors with an 8–5 record.

He successfully advanced through Phase 1 with a strong 6–2 performance before finishing Phase 2 with a 2–3 record. Throughout the tournament, he faced several top-ranked players, including competitors who later finished in the Top 8 and Top 16.

Despite the intense competition, Yujiro’s performance demonstrated resilience, adaptability, and the ability to compete on an international stage at a highly competitive level.

“Competing at the Pokémon Europe International Championships 2026 helped me grow both as a competitor and as a person. I was able to connect with players from around the world through our shared passion for Pokémon, and the experience motivated me to continue improving and come back even stronger in the future.” — Yujiro

At TIU Impact Next, we believe impact comes in many forms — from startups and innovation to global competitive gaming, strategy, and personal growth. Yujiro’s journey reflects the spirit of challenging limits and representing yourself confidently on a world stage.

We wish Yujiro can become a Pokemon Master just like Ash!
