This is the sequel to "Spin to Win: Japanese manufacturers spinning their way to the top".
The national "Koma Taisen – Japanese spintop tournament”, which was begun by workers at small manufacturing factories, had gained popularity. In its 3rd year in February 2015, a worldwide “Koma Taisen spintop tournament” was held.
In this tournament, 11 teams from 6 countries – America, South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Bolivia - took part and battled against 18 teams from Japan. These Japanese teams were the winners of regional tournaments, in which 500 companies had participated. The objective behind this spintop tournament is to motivate the workers to develop their original products and sell them so that they can expand and grow their businesses. They hope that would eventually revitalize small manufacturers.
