The super-aging and declining population that Japan faces are particularly serious in rural areas. To overcome these challenges that lead to the decline of regions, local governments have begun to work with companies, universities, and local organizations to implement ideas and initiatives to revitalize the local economy and strengthen competitiveness. As "Regional Revitalization 2.0" begins to take shape, local government and government officials, as well as experts, will discuss and disseminate innovative examples of initiatives taking place in the field.
Reports
【Reflection】
Japan is facing the challenges of a super-aging society and a declining population. These impacts are particularly severe for rural areas. In light of this situation, Nikkei Inc. held the "Nikkei Regional Revitalization Forum" on May 2, 2025, during the theme week of the Osaka-Kansai Expo, which had just opened. Amid the launch of "Regional Revitalization 2.0," the forum showcased advanced examples of collaboration between municipalities, companies, and private organizations aimed at overcoming challenges and revitalizing local economies. Leaders spearheading these efforts discussed the future of community building and shared their initiatives with the world.
【Post EXPO Initiatives】
We will continue to share advanced examples of collaboration between municipalities, companies, and private organizations aimed at overcoming challenges and revitalizing local economies through this forum in the future.
