About SOCIAL INNOVATION WEEK 2023
SOCIAL INNOVATION WEEK 2023 Executive Producer
Jungo Kanayama
This year's SOCIAL INNOVATION WEEK has the tagline "YOU MAKE".
The image is that the members of the organizing committee, Shibuya City, partner companies, supporters and participants all become “creators” and color SIW. And I defined the dynamism that I have felt through SIW so far as the value to be provided, which is "broaden your horizons, talk about possibilities, and create actions." I hope that SIW will function as a place where diverse and multifaceted ideas and values gather, interact, and take shape.
This year, I focused on the word "UPDATE" as a key word for programming. Update cities, culture, society, diversity, ways of living, ways of working, and ideas. I wish I could share such an exciting time with everyone.
Inspire the future with your ideas! !
SOCIAL INNOVATION WEEK 2023 Executive Producer
Shinko Osada
When I look back on my activities centered on Shibuya, I am inspired by various people on a daily basis, overflowing with ideas, sharing them, and thinking about what I can do.
Over the past five years at SIW, I have had many wonderful encounters, which have led to the birth of new projects. People who usually don't meet can think about the way society should be in the future and the discomfort they feel, transcending each other's boundaries and taking the next step. I feel that SIW is creating such a mysterious time and place.
In order to provide more opportunities for “diverse people to discover new possibilities and take action,” we will continue to actively incorporate new perspectives. I hope that you will be interested in participating.
