What to know about Japan IT Week - IT & Digital Transformation Show
This show is the cornerstone of Japan’s enterprise tech market, characterized by large-scale group attendance where corporate 'DX teams' arrive with specific integration mandates. Unlike Western shows focused on networking, this event is a procurement-heavy environment where exhibitors must provide technical documentation in Japanese to be considered for formal vendor evaluation.
Japanese attendees expect high-quality physical brochures and technical specs; running out of printed Japanese collateral is seen as a sign of under-preparedness and lack of commitment to the market.
The IT crowd in Tokyo remains formal; standard business attire (suits) is the norm, and the 'meishi' (business card) exchange is the primary lead capture method, often preceding any technical discussion.
Booth staff must include native Japanese speakers or professional interpreters, as technical decision-makers in Japanese domestic firms rarely conduct procurement discussions in English.
Maximize visibility by securing a booth near the 'Seminar Stages' or 'DX Theater' areas, as foot traffic peaks sharply immediately following the conclusion of keynote technical sessions.
