Voices
Many solutions were accessible for small and mid-sized companies, making it useful for comparison and evaluation.
Being close to exhibitors was great, allowing specific questions while watching live demos.
A small-business advisor sorted the exhibited AI tools into 11 categories and rated how hard each is to adopt (from an advisor's report, in Japanese)
An HR-system exhibitor gathered a wealth of on-the-ground challenges from visitors over three days (from an exhibitor's report, in Japanese)
Felt the raw voice of visitors saying they don't know where to start with DX, and reaffirmed the value of first-hand trade-show information like facial expressions and tone of voice (from Kenichi Kiyonaga's on-site report, in Japanese)
AI Expo Summer 2026
The summer edition of the AI-focused exhibition hosted by AIsmiley, operator of Japan's AI portal media. Over 100 companies present 200+ AI solutions alongside 40+ conference sessions.
