Trade Show Designed To Promote Japanese Aerospace
Industries
The second Aerosapce Industry Exhibition Tokyo (ASET2011) will
be held October 26 to 28 at Tokyo Big Sight ... Japans largest
industrial center ... in cooperation with the Tokyo Metropolitan
Government.
ASET2011 is a "Business to Business" trade show designed to
promote and develop the aerospace and manufacturing industries, and
to support SMEs in these industries. Organizers say the show will
showcase advanced processing technologies and creative development
technologies that "Japan is famous for."
In an open letter on the ASET2011 website, Tokyo Metropolitan
Government Governor Shintaro Ishihara writes that ASET 2009 was the
first exhibition specializing in aerospace technology held in
Tokyo, and effectively displayed our country's high-level
technologies related to aerospace. At the same time, the event
welcomed a large number of visitors from both inside and outside
Japan, and provided forums for active business talks. He says the
second ASET in October 2011, will to offer forums that are "even
more international and expansive."
"The Tokyo Metropolitan Government positions the aerospace
industry as a strategic industrial sector in view of the broad
range of related technological fields, high technological
repercussion effects, and strong growth potentials," he writes.
"Beginning in FY2007, it has carried out diverse measures to
enhance the technological and quality control capabilities of
Tokyo's small businesses which have outstanding technologies, with
the goal of having them enter the aircraft industry. In this way,
through measures to support small businesses' entry into the
aircraft industry, Tokyo promotes the enhancement of these
companies' skills and capabilities, and works to reinvigorate
industries and foster new industries. It also believes that these
business projects will lead to the promotion and development of the
aerospace industry."
Ishihara says Tokyo is home to Japan's largest industrial
cluster which has outstanding technological power. At the same
time, with a sharp increase in international flights to and from
Haneda Airport in 2010, it will develop even more powerfully as one
of the world's foremost international cities.
