By sharing what we eat, how we eat, and where we eat, SYT hopes to foster a deeper appreciation and understanding of the diverse communities and lifestyles that make our Islands so wonderful.

SYT is a production of First Daughter MediaWorks, Inc., the creators of numerous award winning culinary television series, including The Kitchen Sessions with Charlie Trotter and Hawaii Cooks with Roy Yamaguchi.

We are a multiplatform endeavor with partnerships with Oceanic Time Warner Cable and The Honolulu Advertiser.

“This is Tokyo 2.0, the nonprofit bilingual community event hosted by a steering committee led by co-founder Andrew Shuttleworth, a 32-year-old “connector” who said he hopes the event can act as a catalyst for the city’s online community.

“We wanted a place where the Japanese Web community and international Web community and entrepreneurs can interact with each other,” said Shuttleworth, a U.K. native who was involved in initiating the event two years ago after mulling the idea for years.

“A lot of people talk about how the Japanese venture industry is not as active as it should be, and I want Tokyo 2.0 really to be a forum for people to start to discuss these issues,” he said.

Tokyo 2.0, which used to offer only a few presentations per event, last month redesigned its format and began featuring multiple 10-minute presentations based on set themes, followed by a few five-minute “lightning talks” by those wishing to brief the crowd on their activities.”
