\nInspired by Geeks On A Plane<\/a> that was organized by Founder Fund<\/a> co-founder Dave McClure<\/a> and took 50 Silicon Valley tech geeks to Japan, Korea and Mainland China to meet up with Asian friends last June<\/a>, a group of Tokyo-based mobile service entrepreneurs is now planning to visit San Francisco Bay Area at the end of this month, which is titled “JIMs (Japanese Internets & Mobiles) on the Plane”.
\nThe main purpose of JIMs guys’ 3-day visit is to tour tech start-up companies in the region to give entrepreneurs a series of presentations on what they’ve developed and Japanese mobile business trends, and to establish relationships for the possible future collaboration over the Pacific.
