CEATEC JAPAN Executive Board



The CEATEC JAPAN Executive Board comprised of three organizations – the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA), the Communications and Information Network Association of Japan (CIAJ), and the Computer Software Association of Japan (CSAJ) – is pleased to announce that CEATEC JAPAN 2017 will be held for four days from October 3 (Tue) to October 6 (Fri) at Makuhari Messe (Mihama-ku, Chiba-city).

CEATEC JAPAN celebrates its 18th anniversary this year. In announcing our transformation from a consumer electronics show in 2016, we made a firm commitment to become a comprehensive CPS/IoT exhibition with a primary focus on the Internet of Things (IoT), a driving force for societal transformation. This year we are proud to present a global showcase for Japan’s growth strategies and Society 5.0, our vision of the ultra-smart community of the future in which IoT, robots and AI will all play important roles. As a forum for co-creation, CEATEC JAPAN 2017 is breaking down barriers by connecting policies, industries and technologies.

The concept for CEATEC JAPAN 2017 is “Connecting Society, Creating the Future” – co-creation of a future realized through Society 5.0. This year will see the participation of many companies and organizations representing a wide range of industries. In addition to IT and electronics, there will be finance, travel, toys, housing, machine tools, cars, communications, printing and textiles, among others. As many as 327 companies and organizations will exhibit for the first time, more than in 2016, and last year’s exhibitors are making significant changes to their displays. CEATEC JAPAN is charting a new course this year. Also, as a result of introducing two new areas – India Showcase for Indian companies, and Global Startup Showcase for overseas startup companies – 199 foreign companies/organizations from 22 countries will be participating in this year’s event; in 2016 the figures were 195 and 24, respectively.

CEATEC JAPAN 2017 will be hosting 667 companies/organizations (compared to 648 in 2016), and offering more than 100 conferences. It will thus facilitate the creation of new connections of all sorts to realize Society 5.0. Over the four days on which CEATEC JAPAN 2017 is held, 160,000 visitors are expected to experience Japan of the future.

CEATEC JAPAN: CPS/IoT Exhibition

CEATEC JAPAN has evolved from being a trade show for cutting-edge IT and electronics into a CPS/IoT exhibition. This dramatic change of focus was to provide a venue for the collaborative creation of a future society in which CPS and IoT will generate new connections and opportunities. Thus recast as a CPS/IoT exhibition, CEATEC JAPAN 2016 was able to present visitors with futuristic concepts and new business models by bringing together the key technologies underpinning a CPS/IoT society and the new services that utilize them. The size of the 2016 exhibition was significantly larger than the previous year: the total number of exhibiting companies and organizations was 648, an increase of 117 (22.0%), and there were 145,180 registered visitors, an increase of 12,132 (9.1%). This was a very promising start for this CPS/IoT exhibition, providing as it does a venue for creating new business by breaking down barriers between different industries and existing business categories, while fostering co-creation that includes international collaboration on policy-making.
