Welcome to Japan at IMEX!

The Japan Convention Bureau (part of JNTO) is at IMEX again for 2019! With our 23 expert partners, JNTO is ready to tell you what Japan can bring to your events.

In the run-up to IMEX, we're going to be publishing a series of newsletters as blog posts on this website. This week, we’ll start by filling you in on why Japan is the place for your event, before moving on to talk about where to stay in style, and finally, wrapping up with a two-week tour of our fantastic cities. So, without further ado – why bring your event to Japan?

Tradition and innovation – at first glance, Japan is a country of contrasts. A country of bustling metropolises and natural wonders. A country of the mountains and the sea. A country of age-old traditions and cutting-edge innovation. Throughout Japan’s history, this dynamic interplay between different visions of the country has created a fertile environment for new ideas. It’s a country rich in inspiration.

This goes some way to explaining how Japan has been a consistent technological and scientific leader – you only need to glance down the list of scientific Nobel Prize winners to see its global influence. These knowledge networks are a great asset when it comes to international events, particularly when considering the pool of expertise and speakers to draw on.

Let’s not forget the potential for fun outside the meeting room: the options for post-trips or incentives in Japan are just as multi-faceted. Japanese traditional culture is another avenue of inspiration, whether team-building through taiko drumming, practicing mindfulness with Zen meditation, or stimulating your creative side with ikebana flower-arranging. Equally, you’ll find active and modern itineraries to suit any group – from midwinter skiing or SUP at a tropical beach, to robot restaurants or digital art installations. Exclusive Japanese experiences make a great event into an unforgettable event.

So, what next? Maybe you want to know more about the great experiences Japan can offer; or your client has asked for a pitch on Japan; or you’re ready to take your own meeting or event to Japan…that’s when you need someone you can rely on to help with all the nitty-gritty details.
