Japan’s main annual electronics show opened on Tuesday alongside the Mobility Show at the same venue in the first joint trade show to strengthen cooperation between sectors.
The joint holding of the Advanced Technology Exhibition and Japan Mobility Show BizWeek comes at a time when the line between technology and automotive companies is becoming increasingly blurred as high-tech software makes vehicles more connected and autonomous. I will.
Organizers said they hope the joint event will foster further cross-industry activities to foster innovation.
Artificial intelligence was one of the trade show’s main themes, and about half of the approximately 800 attendees exhibited AI-related products or technologies in the technology section of the joint event.
A total of about 1,000 companies will participate in the joint event, which runs until Friday at the Makuhari Messe Convention Center in Chiba, near Tokyo.
Admission is free, but organizers said attendees must register online before arriving at the venue.
