Organizer Event
See it to believe it! Welcome to the state-of-the-art in eco-technologies.
[Themed event] Kawasaki eco-technologies valuable during disasters
The Kawasaki International Eco-Tech Fair has been spreading the word about cutting-edge eco-technologies from "the land of Kawasaki" and other technologies and expertise immediately useful in addressing the world's environmental problems. Through efforts such as Green Innovation, Life Innovation, and Welfare Innovation that focus on achieving innovation, Kawasaki is using its varied technological expertise to ramp up efforts towards solving social problems. The Great East Japan Earthquake has prompted a greater awareness of the importance of disaster prevention. To do its part for society, Kawasaki is spreading the word about new disaster prevention efforts based on the diverse range of eco-technologies developed in the region by Kawasaki-based companies. It is also stepping up exchange between domestic companies, promoting business matching, and ultimately stimulating Kawasaki's economy.
