What is SmartCityX
SmartCityX is a global open innovation program in which large corporations representing various industries and startups from around the world collaborate to co-create high-value services and applications from the perspective of consumers, not just from the standpoint of industry and technology. This is a global open innovation program.
We will accelerate the study of business co-creation between large corporations and domestic and overseas startups, and promote DX from the consumer's perspective, which will be the driving force behind "Society 5.0 x New Normal". We aim to create a society in which people can make choices that meet their individual needs and realize a variety of happiness.
