CIC Japan (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Denise Medlenka, hereinafter 'CIC') will exhibit for the first time at the global innovation conference 'SusHi Tech Tokyo 2026,' starting on Monday, April 27, 2026.
In this exhibition, in addition to an exhibition booth at the venue, we will roll out a multifaceted program, including stage sessions approaching the core of innovation and energetic side events set at CIC Tokyo in the evening. During these few days, when 50,000 people from 100 countries gather, we will provide an opportunity for attendees to experience the 'power of community' that CIC has cultivated, inspiring them to take their next action right on the spot.
## Why CIC is 'Exhibiting' at SusHi Tech Tokyo Now
Until now, centered around its hubs in Toranomon, Tokyo, and Fukuoka, CIC has created spaces where diverse players such as startups, corporations, investors, and government agencies intersect, solidly building the foundation of an ecosystem. Furthermore, in May of this year, 'Osaka Life Science Nexus by Nippon Life and CIC' (affectionately known as O-Nexus), our third domestic hub, will launch as a hub specializing in life sciences.
On the other hand, to dramatically expand the ecosystem, an 'open point of contact' where all players can intersect regardless of location or attribute is necessary. This exhibition is a challenge to connect CIC's global network with players across Japan, creating actions that move the world from this very place.
## CIC Exhibition Booth: Finding the Optimal Connection with CIC for Your Challenge
Make CIC's multifaceted functions the starting point for your innovation.
To those who interact with it, CIC is a 'gateway to the world,' a 'supporter accompanying co-creation,' and for government agencies, an 'innovation ecosystem partner.' The fact that we are recognized in such diverse ways is proof of the multifaceted value CIC holds.
In this exhibition, we will comprehensively introduce these various aspects of CIC. We offer a place for visitors to find points of contact with CIC from 'perspectives' tailored to their own challenges and phases, using them as nourishment for their next innovations.

We will introduce a glimpse of our global network spreading across 11 hubs in 6 countries, including Boston, Berlin, and Warsaw, case studies of innovation born at those hubs, and the all-inclusive services supporting them.
