Comment from Founder MEGUMI on the occasion of "JAPANESE NIGHT" "I am pleased that the international cultural exchange event I founded will be held with a new name, 'JAPANESE NIGHT,' on May 15, 2026, during the Cannes International Film Festival.

In recent years, I have truly felt that Japanese culture, including Japanese cinema, art, food, crafts, and spirituality, has been received with deep respect in various parts of the world. Furthermore, Japanese entertainment IPs, centered on films, anime, and games, are expanding significantly worldwide, and interest in creators and their works is increasing even more.

Through this event, we aim for a future where people with creative visions connect, and new values and initiatives are continuously born. We will powerfully transmit the value of Japanese cinema and content culture to the world as a more concrete appeal. From Cannes, we will promote global cultural exchange through Japanese cinema and contribute to further development. Please pay attention to this!" MEGUMI

Future Developments The Company will promote global expansion that encompasses not only the dissemination of IP but also distribution and monetization.
