Nagoya, with a population of 2.2 million, is situated in the center of Japan.
Its location makes it an ideal venue for convention. It is a city with strong cultural, historical and industrial identity.
Nagoya’s history began with Nagoya Castle, built by the famous Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu in 1612. Since then, his successors encouraged the growth of cultural arts such as Noh & Kabuki theater, Nihon Buyo (Japanese Dance), tea ceremonies, and flower arrangement. All traditional Japanese arts are enjoyed in Nagoya today.
Many of Japan’s world-renowned high-tech industries; those of automobiles, aviation, machine tools, fine ceramics and industrial robots, are based in and around Nagoya.
Technical visits of the plants of these industries can easily be arranged for convention delegates.
Yet, what really sets Nagoya apart from other convention cities is our blend of country-style warmth and big city feeling atmosphere.
