The Tokyo Metropolitan Government's own startup flagship, and the single event that pulls the whole Japanese ecosystem, plus a large foreign contingent, into one hall. The 2026 edition ran 700 exhibiting startups, roughly 10,000 pre-booked business meetings and 60,000 attendees, with a serious investor programme and pitch stage rather than a pure trade floor. If you are a founder trying to sell into Japanese corporates, raise from Japanese funds or land a soft landing in Tokyo, this is the week to fly in for. Dates are the official save-the-date announced on the 2026 site; the full programme and ticketing usually open in the new year.
