Nagoya to the World as the "Capital of Bushido" - The BUSHIDO JAPAN Concept
At the 1st summit, following a keynote speech by inbound consultant Mr. MAX Uenishi, Kensuke Kamioka, CEO of BUSHIDO G.K., introduced the concept of promoting Nagoya to the world as the "Capital of Bushido."
Nagoya is a land associated with the three great heroes Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu, and today it is also a center of manufacturing. BUSHIDO JAPAN will re-edit this land, rich in unique food culture, artisan culture, and human warmth, not as "sightseeing to see" but as "experiences that change you by feeling," and will disseminate these valuable experiences for foreign tourists both domestically and internationally.
