WiT Japan & North Asia is the Tokyo-based edition of the Web in Travel (WiT) conference first launched in Singapore in 2005.
It was launched in Tokyo with co-founders, Kei Shibata and Aya Aso, in 2012 to act as a bridge between Japan & North Asia and the rest of the world to unearth and share the latest innovations and trends happening in travel technology, distribution and marketing in one of the world’s most dynamic and biggest travel markets.
Its objective is to showcase the dynamism and diversity of the Japanese & North Asia travel startup ecosystem, as well as the trends, issues and opportunities within the online travel market. For global travel brands, it will be an opportunity to learn about an exciting growth region as well as form relationships and build partnerships for the future.
For travel players based in Japan and North Asia, it will be an opportunity to take lessons from the rest of the world and build relationships for global outreach.
In 2024, WiT Japan & North Asia compromised two days of sessions aimed at empowering startups and nurturing the startup ecosystem, serving as a platform for thought leaders to share insights and lessons and unearth opportunities for the future.
