About Nipponcademy

Japan Coordinator

Team in Japan
Our team in Japan is focused on international participants from all over the world. This is where many of our programs are designed and where we build our cooperations with language schools and accommodation partners – for everyone who wants to experience Japan in a deeper and more authentic way.

From Japan, we develop new programs, maintain our partnerships and make sure that Nipponcademy continues to grow as an international platform for studying and living in Japan.

Team in Europe
Our European team is the first point of contact for people who are planning a stay in Japan from within Europe. Here we answer questions about our programs, help you choose the right option, explain each step of the process and keep an eye on deadlines, documents and formalities together with you.

Behind the scenes, enquiries are coordinated, programs are fine-tuned and information is prepared in a way that makes everything as clear and transparent as possible. This way, you have a dedicated team in Europe that understands your situation and supports you from your first enquiry until you are on your way to Japan.

The history of Nipponcademy

2018
First steps
We started organizing Japanese-speaking support in Germany as early as 2018. The idea from the beginning was to bring people from both cultures closer together - our focus was on Japanese exchange students in Heidelberg, Germany.
2018
2020
Company founded in Europe
Officially founded at the beginning of 2020. In this phase, our focus under the Eurasia-Linkup brand was still entirely on Japanese participants who wanted to learn and live in Europe.
2020
2021
German speakers to Japan
With growing interest from Germany, Austria and Switzerland, we expanded our offering and set up programs for German-speaking students to Japan. This opened the way for many young people to experience Japan authentically. Our Nipponcademy brand was born.
2021
2024
Internationalization in English
We have opened our program to English-speaking participants. New students came to us mainly from the USA, Canada and the UK - and Nipponcademy became more international.
2024
2025
Relocation of headquarters to Kyoto
A milestone: Our headquarters moved to Kyoto. Since then, we have been supporting participants not only digitally, but also directly on site in Japan - more personal, faster and closer to the students.
2025
2026
Start of Spanish-speaking programs
Our Spanish-speaking section will start in 2026. In this way, we also reach participants from Spain and Latin America and make Nipponcademy even more diverse.
