1. [Featured Session] Not Just Success Stories! 5-Minute Pitches from 5 Municipalities Sharing Real-World Experiences
[5 Municipalities x 5-Minute Pitch]
Five municipalities will give 5-minute pitches, sharing not only their success stories but also the challenges and failures they encountered in the process, offering a real glimpse into their fieldwork. This is a talk session for local government employees, by local government employees, where you can learn the "real story" beyond the documents, covering topics like "Walls Hit During Generative AI Implementation," "Challenges in Internal Coordination as a DX Promotion Officer," and "DX That Finally Led to Tangible Results for the First Time."
Date and Time: July 10 (Fri) 16:10-16:50
2. [Connect with Other Municipalities] "Local Government Networking Session" for Casual Conversations with Staff from Other Municipalities
"What initiatives are other municipalities undertaking?"
This networking session will be held to exchange information and build connections on such questions and challenges.
This popular session was highly acclaimed at our Tokyo and Osaka events, and speakers from special lectures are also scheduled to attend!
It's a valuable opportunity to hear real-world examples and frontline voices from other municipalities that you can't fully grasp during lectures.

Date and Time: July 10 (Fri) 12:30-13:20
3. [Workshop] Interactive Session for Visitors
Local government tasks seem to only increase, rarely decrease. This participatory session aims to provide a trigger for local government employees, who are often bound by "precedents" and unable to act, to escape their current state of "inability to move."
[Workshop] "Escape from the "Inability to Move" in Local Governments" Game
Date and Time: July 9 (Thu) 14:00-14:40
Lecturers
Asuka Nagao, Assistant Chief Digital Officer (CDO)

Within the venue, there will be 14 special lectures by current local government staff and a Waseda University professor, as well as 11 specialized seminars introducing products and services for local governments. You will hear real frontline voices, including not only "success stories" but also "trial and error" from current staff who have actually promoted DX. Furthermore, in specialized seminars where you can hear about DX utilization methods from exhibiting companies, including products and services for local governments that are actually in use, you can efficiently gather information in a short time.
