Explore the Future of Inbound Hospitality

On October 7, 2025, the GLOBALIZED by WOVN.io conference will take place at the esteemed Kanda Myojin Hall. This event, hosted by Wovn Technologies, aims to shed light on the future of inbound lodging experiences, featuring insights from distinguished speakers, including Tomoki Matsuyama, the CEO of Onko Chishin. The theme for this year’s gathering is "The World Will Love Japan More: Building the 15 Trillion Yen Inbound Infrastructure with AI and Multilingual Support."

Conference Overview

The conference promises to discuss cutting-edge examples from the inbound market and the latest in technological advancements. Matsuyama will lead a panel discussion titled, "Diversification and Deepening of Inbound Lodging Experiences: Hospitality Strategies Towards 2030." His company, Onko Chishin, specializes in producing destination hotels, converting historic buildings into hospitality venues, and creating unique experiences that are pivotal to travelers’ journeys.

With the rise in demand for inbound travel, the competition within the lodging market has intensified significantly. It is no longer sufficient for accommodations to merely provide a space for guests to sleep. There is a pressing need to craft experiences that highlight the charm and culture of local areas. In this session, top leaders from three different companies will present their unique perspectives and strategies on how to attract customers both domestically and internationally. They will discuss elements of experience, such as service design, spatial architecture, and community involvement, to devise strategies to enhance customer satisfaction and encourage repeat visits.
