## What is THE INBOUND DAY?
THE INBOUND DAY is a forum where all companies, organizations, local governments, and individuals involved in inbound tourism gather to explore and discuss new perspectives and strategic approaches for the market.
Mov is committed to "maximizing Japan's potential" and is at the forefront of the inbound market. While the market is rapidly expanding, many structural issues remain on the ground, and Japan faces numerous significant challenges to remain a truly "advanced tourism nation" chosen by the world.
Held with the sentiment, "We don't want to give up on Japan," THE INBOUND DAY aims not just to share information, but to serve as a starting point for discussions on problem-solving, powerfully accelerating the entire inbound industry's progress.
Leveraging the network cultivated by "Honichi Lab," the industry's largest inbound media, key figures from various fields are invited as speakers to engage in deep discussions on fundamental questions facing the industry. It will be held in a hybrid format, allowing online participation from anywhere in the country.
