Background of the Event

The All Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry has been actively supporting SMEs and regional businesses in Japan by showcasing their products overseas. While participating in exhibitions and trade fairs abroad can yield significant results, navigating international markets can be daunting for individual businesses. As a solution, they decided to create an event that enables localized promotion right here in Japan.

The inaugural gala last year saw participation from over 300 representatives from 97 countries and regions, showcasing the potential of Japanese regional products efficiently. This year, the event will extend the invitation to foreign governmental organizations, large-scale exhibition organizers, and chefs representing foreign embassies, placing a stronger emphasis on facilitating business discussions.

This year’s gala aims to be a dynamic centerpiece for promoting Japanese SMEs and enhancing their connectivity within the global market. Attendees can look forward to not only tasting and experiencing Japanese products but also exploring potential business collaborations in an engaging environment.
