Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2026
Industries across the board are transcending traditional boundaries to generate new value in an era of unprecedented collaboration. The automotive industry, too, has been pursuing its transformation into a broader mobility industry, expanding its circle of like-minded partners while placing society and the people who live in it at the center of its efforts to solve challenges and create value. To give further impetus to this momentum, Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2026 has established “Seven MOVEs” as its co-creation topics, based on the idea of expanding the concept of mobility beyond its traditional scope to wider parameters. With those topics serving as a springboard, new challenges and initiatives aimed at moving society forward can be conceived and given shape, going well beyond the simple movement of people and goods.

Key Programs
Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2026 will bring together exhibitor booths from domestic automobile manufacturers, startup companies, universities, research institutions, and established companies pursuing diverse initiatives—all under one roof. Consortia will also exhibit, driving a wide range of encounters. In addition, we offer mechanisms that spark unexpected encounters and a variety of acceleration programs, developing content that creates unprecedented synergies and new value.
Booth Exhibits
To foster co-creation that transcends industry and field boundaries, the venue is
organized into four ZONEs based on each exhibitor's content, regardless of whether they
are a startup, university, research institution, or established company.
This year, we are also welcoming new exhibits from consortia that serve as hubs for co-creation.
