It is highly regarded both in Japan and abroad as one of the largest robot exhibitions in the world. The 2025 International Robot Exhibition will be held under the theme of “Sustainable Societies Through Robotics” with the aim of creating industries and solving social issues through the coexistence and collaboration of humans and robots. State-of-the-art robots and robot-related technology, including AI, ICT, and component technologies will all be on display throughout the event.
