Towards a Resilient Society Through Disaster Prevention and Mitigation
The BOSAI Industry Exhibition 2025, organized by the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun and the Disaster Risk Reduction Industry Conference of Japan proudly introduce the products and services related to disaster prevention and mitigation one go under the theme, "Towards a Resilient Society Through Disaster Prevention and Mitigation."
According to the Japanese government’s Earthquake Research Committee , there is a 90% probability of a massive earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring in the Nankai Trough within the next 40 years. In the event of such a major earthquake or severe rainfall disasters caused by climate change, it is said that the formulation of a BCP (Business Continuity Plan) for companies and municipalities to quickly respond and recover is essential for restoring daily life. Furthermore, a maximum intensity 7 earthquake occurred centered Noto Peninsula in January 2024, heightening public awareness of large-scale disaster preparedness.
We hope this exhibition will serve as an opportunity to promote and expand the reach of disaster prevention and mitigation products and solutions, etc.

Building Sustainable and Attractive Land, Urban, and Regional Spaces
Green infrastructure refers to initiatives that utilize the diverse functions of natural environments for both hard and soft aspects of urban and regional development. This approach contributes to achieving the SDGs by 2030, mitigating climate change through carbon neutrality, building a circular society that efficiently uses natural resources, and preserving biodiversity cultivated over many years. The exhibition will feature a wide range of products, technologies, solutions, and exemplary cases related to green infrastructure.

Toward a Richer Society Powered by Geospatial Information
The exhibition at the Geospatial Information Forum is organized by member organizations of the forum and aims to deepen understanding of geospatial technologies that underpin a geospatial society. These include GNSS positioning, Quasi-Zenith Satellites, surveying, mapping, indoor positioning, GIS, IT, telecommunications, disaster prevention, and more. Exhibitors showcase and distribute technologies, products, services, and related technical documentation to achieve this purpose.
Geo-Activity Contest
This contest aims to foster the next generation of talent for a geospatial society and promote the use of geospatial information. It invites innovative ideas and new services leveraging geospatial information from the public. Selected participants will showcase and present their entries at the event, and outstanding submissions will be awarded. The contest creates a space where visitors and exhibitors can connect and inspire new ideas.
Lectures and Symposiums
The program features lectures and symposiums delivering the latest updates on positioning technologies, research findings, product development, industry trends, and emerging technologies.
