JELLNESS raises ¥370 million in pre-Series A
The Shumitime service organizes small-group outings for people in their 60s and 70s who want to explore interests and meet peers.
Leisure planned around participants’ interests
Shumitime creates small-group outings, from walks and cultural visits to lessons, performances and overnight trips. Participants meet at the destination with guides and others in their age group, making it possible to join without organizing a group of friends or family. JELLNESS says more than 6,300 people had participated in the service's first year, and it plans to expand into Kansai in December 2026.
