Become a partner and co-create a “2030 township”
Society 5.0 TOWN is a planned area for developing a “2030 township” at the exhibition venue with the participation of several firms, mainly frontrunners in the service industry. Society 5.0 envisions a future society where people, things, and information are variously and freely connected so that people can live, work, and play more actively. This requires nothing less than co-creation using the leading-edge technologies of many different industries and businesses. Join us in creating the role model township of the future so that visitors may experience the next-gen society and appreciate how our lives will evolve through Society 5.0.
