    Event overview

    Overview

    NexTech Week TOKYO (Spring) is a cluster of co-located B2B technology exhibitions at Tokyo Big Sight, organised by RX Japan. The 2027 edition runs 21–23 April and brings AI, quantum computing, physical AI, humanoid robotics, XR and AI-era HR and organisation reform under one free-to-visit roof.

    Exhibitors show deployment-ready solutions rather than research concepts, and the visitor page describes the event as a place to compare technologies, accelerate adoption and negotiate directly with implementation partners. The organiser plans around 400 exhibitors and 30,000–35,000 visitors.

    TL;DR

    1. 121–23 April 2027 at Tokyo Big Sight, Tokyo, Japan.
    2. 2Six co-located technology exhibitions covering AI, quantum, physical AI, humanoid robots, XR and AI-era HR.
    3. 3Organiser plans about 400 exhibitors and 30,000–35,000 visitors.
    4. 4Free admission with advance visitor registration; the 2026 edition drew 33,612 visitors.
    5. 5Japan's AI and automation adoption, labour shortage and deep-tech investment frame the buyer story.

    Why visit

    One visit covers six technology markets: generative AI and AI agents, quantum computing, physical AI for factory and logistics automation, humanoid robots, industrial XR and AI-era human-resource reform. Exhibitors are selected for business deployment, so visitors can see working demonstrations, compare integration partners and discuss pricing and pilots. Free seminars run through the three days, and the co-located structure makes it practical to compare solutions across departments before building a DX roadmap.

    Why exhibit

    NexTech Week puts a vendor in front of Japanese corporate DX, operations, HR and R&D buyers who are actively comparing deployment partners. The cluster format delivers adjacent audiences: an AI vendor meets robotics and quantum buyers, and an HR-tech vendor meets the same transformation teams. RX Japan reports strong growth at the 2026 spring edition, which drew 33,612 visitors, up 21% on the previous edition. The 2027 plan of about 400 exhibitors is modest relative to visitor volume, which favours stands with clear demonstrations.

    Edition recap

    NexTech Week 2026【春】 ran 15–17 April 2026 in the West Exhibition Hall at Tokyo Big Sight and drew 33,612 visitors, 121% of the previous edition, according to the organiser's closing release. The edition debuted the Humanoid Robot Expo, renamed the digital-talent show to AI-era HR & Organisation Reform Expo, and expanded its Quantum Gateway zone. The release frames the shift from AI experimentation to social implementation and deployment.

    Impact

    A bigger and stronger platform

    NexTech Week is a cluster show rather than a single exhibition, so its value comes from cross-department comparison. A Japanese corporate DX team can review AI platforms, automation, robotics, quantum partners, XR training and HR technology in one trip to Tokyo Big Sight. The 2026 spring edition drew 33,612 visitors, up 21%, and the 2027 plan is about 400 exhibitors against 30,000–35,000 expected visitors. That ratio implies a relatively high visitor-to-exhibitor density, so exhibitors should expect intense traffic and plan qualification rather than rely on volume alone.

    Audience quality

    High-value decision-makers

    The audience is corporate and technical: DX and IT strategy teams, manufacturing and logistics operations, R&D and quantum groups, HR and organisation-development leaders, plus system integrators and consultants. The event is free with registration, which widens the top of the funnel but can dilute buying authority, so exhibitors should qualify by project budget and deployment timeline. The co-location means a visitor may be an AI buyer at one stand and an HR buyer at another; stand staff need cross-domain messaging rather than a single-product pitch.

    Exhibitor outcomes

    Real business growth

    A stand is easiest to justify for vendors with a Japanese-language demonstration and local implementation or channel partner. The 2026 edition's 33,612 visitors across a multi-exhibition floor gives strong reach, but the 2027 plan of about 400 exhibitors means each stand competes with many adjacent solutions. Budget for a Japanese-speaking team, a working demo and a follow-up process that can handle high-volume badge scans. Treat the free-admission audience as a qualification challenge, not a guaranteed pipeline, and measure cost per qualified meeting rather than cost per lead.

    Intelligence

    Market context

    Key market insights, trends, news and related events to help you understand the bigger picture.

    Japan, with a primary focus on the Tokyo metropolitan corporate and technology market and a secondary pull from Osaka, Nagoya and overseas vendors seeking Japanese partners.

    Why it matters

    Japan is a large but hard-to-enter technology market: buyers value local-language support, proven integration and long-term service relationships. Labour shortage and yen-driven cost pressure are pushing manufacturers, logistics operators and back offices toward automation and AI. NexTech Week concentrates those buyers and their vendors at Tokyo Big Sight, and the cluster structure lets a corporate DX team compare AI, robotics, quantum, XR and HR technology in one visit. For overseas vendors, the show is a route to Japanese system integrators, trading houses and corporate innovation teams.

    Industry trends

    Key trends shaping this market and its wider industry.

    01

    From AI experimentation to deployment

    The 2026 edition framed the market shift from testing generative AI to integrating agents and data infrastructure into live operations.

    What it changes: Buyers now ask for security, integration, ROI and change management, not only model demos.

    Source
    02

    Physical AI and humanoid robotics against labour shortage

    Physical AI, machine vision and humanoid robots are presented as answers to shortage-driven automation in factories, logistics and stores.

    What it changes: Vendors must show safe deployment and integration with existing Japanese production systems.

    Source
    03

    AI-era organisation and reskilling

    The renaming of the digital-talent expo to AI-era HR and Organisation Reform reflects demand for reskilling, evaluation and organisation redesign.

    What it changes: Technology budgets increasingly sit beside HR and change-management budgets.

    Source
    04

    Quantum moves from research to industrial pilots

    Quantum computing, security and optimisation are being framed around research use and industrial pilots rather than near-term replacement of classical systems.

    What it changes: Quantum exhibitors need patient, technical buyers and long sales cycles.

    First-timer guide

    Follow-up playbook

    1. Capture the contact's department, project stage and deployment timeline at the stand, not just the badge.
    2. Send a personalised bilingual email within 48 hours referencing the exact demo and use case discussed.
    3. Attach a Japanese-language data sheet and propose a concrete next step: technical call, pilot scope or partner introduction.
    4. Log the lead in the CRM with consent status and set a 30-day nurture task.
    5. Review conversion after four weeks; drop contacts who do not opt in and refine the next show's target list.

    The audience is corporate and technical, and Japanese buying cycles are relationship-led. Speed matters, but a Japanese-language follow-up and a named local contact matter more than raw lead volume.
