Expanding Horizons: Corporate Location Fair 2025
The Japan Management Association, led by Chairman Gosuke Takahara and located in Shibuya, Tokyo, is excited to announce the
Corporate Location Fair 2025, taking place from
July 16 to 18, 2025, at
Tokyo Big Sight, West Hall 4. This event is crucial for regional revitalization, attracting businesses, and fostering strategic site selections, and it brings together municipalities, related organizations, and enterprises from across Japan.
What is the Corporate Location Fair?
The
Corporate Location Fair has been an annual exhibition since 2008, designed to match municipalities that offer optimal location conditions and business environments with companies striving for sustainable growth. This initiative began after the 2007 enactment of the
Location Promotion Law (now known as the
Regional Future Investment Promotion Law) and marks its 18th edition this year. It serves as a vital hub for bridging the gap between local governments and businesses, aiming to invigorate regional economies and promote industrial advancement.
Highlights of Corporate Location Fair 2025
1. Comprehensive Exhibitions and Cutting-Edge Case Studies
In 2025, the fair will feature over 55 municipalities and organizations, making it the largest event of its kind to date. Attendees will have a unique opportunity to compare and evaluate potential relocation sites across Japan. The seminar hosted by the organizers will spotlight innovative cases of corporate attraction and regional relocation, providing insights into municipal policies and recent trends.
Interested visitors can view and register for the seminars on the official page of the
Comprehensive Local Government Fair 2025. Note that advance registration is required for free admission to the seminars.
