Today I will talk about a corporate museum where you can learn about the history and products of Japanese companies.
Corporate museums which are operate by their respective companies are in most cases located where the companies were first established and are scattered all over Japan.
Most of the corporate museums have free admission, and talk about the corporate philosophy and successful products in the museum to help people deepen their understanding of the company.
Hamamatsu is located about halfway between Tokyo and Osaka, and is home to many excellent companies, among which is Suzuki Motor has an especially strong presence. SUZUKI Museum

I personally recommend the Panasonic Museum in Osaka. You can feel the passion for manufacturing by Kounosuke Matsushita, the founder of Panasonic.
When things go back to normal after the pandemic, I think it would be good idea to tour corporate museums all over Japan.
