Awaji Well-being Week 2025: A Hub for Innovation and Well-being

In a significant move towards fostering a healthier and more holistic society, the Awaji Well-being Week 2025 is set to take place this September. Organized by Pasona Group, the event encompasses a range of engaging activities centered on the concept of Well-being, aiming to inspire both entrepreneurs and students alike. This year's highlight, the NATUREVERSE INNOVATION EXPO, is scheduled for September 16th at the Dream Island venue of the Osaka Kansai Expo.

Uniting for Future Prosperity

The upcoming expo stands as a platform where the realms of business, education, and community converge. Capturing the essence of Well-being—which, as defined by WHO, refers not just to the absence of disease but to a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being—the event aspires to cultivate new ideas and foster startups that will contribute positively to society.

During the expo, participants will engage in various activities, including a business contest for startups and entrepreneurs focused on creating innovative solutions for the future of Well-being. The contest's theme, “Body, Mind, and Connection,” will challenge participants to present their ideas that span various categories such as health, nutrition, medical care, environmental sustainability, arts, and education.
