RX Japan Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo, President: Takeshi Tanaka) will hold the "10th AI & Artificial Intelligence EXPO" (inside NexTech Week 2026 [Spring]) for three days from Wednesday, April 15 to Friday, April 17, 2026, at the Tokyo Big Sight West Exhibition Halls.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary, this exhibition will bring together products and services that support corporate AI utilization, including generative AI, AI agents, chatbots, natural language processing, image recognition, as well as AI infrastructure and data platforms. It is an exhibition that visitors from a wide range of industries can use as a place for comparing products and services, consulting on implementation, and gathering information on the latest trends.
In recent years, while the use of generative AI has expanded, how to incorporate AI into actual business operations and organizational management has become an important theme for companies. Gartner predicts that by the end of 2026, 40% of enterprise applications will integrate task-specific AI agents, and AI utilization is about to enter a new phase.
Under these circumstances, the areas where utilization is expected to advance first are management, finance/analysis, document creation, meeting management, and customer service. 2026 is considered to be the year when a system in which people make decisions and AI supports practical work will be established, rather than a year when AI simply replaces human roles, and the implementation of AI agents is about to begin. At this exhibition, as solutions for such an implementation phase, you can cross-sectionally view themes directly linked to practical work, ranging from AI agents, generative AI, infrastructure supporting AI utilization, to the data management area.

## Highlights of this exhibition
1. "AI Agent World" specializing in AI agents
Within the AI & Artificial Intelligence EXPO, we will develop "AI Agent World," an area specializing in AI agents. You can compare and consider AI agent-related services that are expected to be utilized in various business areas such as customer service, sales/marketing, management/planning, administration, accounting/HR, and manufacturing/logistics.
2. Broadly covering generative AI, AI infrastructure, and data platforms
In addition to the "Generative AI Hub" specializing in generative AI-related services, an "AI Infrastructure Zone" handling GPUs, AI accelerators, data centers, MLOps, security, networks, etc., and a "Data Management Zone for AI Utilization" supporting data collection, integration, quality control, governance, etc. will also be set up. It is structured to provide a bird's-eye view from the upstream of AI utilization to implementation and operation.
3. Seminars by industry leaders held daily
During the exhibition, we will hold numerous seminars to learn about the latest trends and practical examples of AI utilization. We are planning themes useful for considering implementation, such as the future vision of AI evolution, AI utilization in corporate management, the forefront of autonomous AI agents, human resource development, and organizational reform.
4. Held concurrently within NexTech Week, allowing simultaneous comparison of latest technologies
This exhibition will be held within NexTech Week 2026 [Spring] and concurrently with "Blockchain EXPO," "Quantum Computing EXPO," "Human Resources & Organizational Reform in the AI Era EXPO," and "Humanoid Robot EXPO." With a single visitor registration, you can explore the latest technologies across multiple fields.
