Factory Innovation Week Tokyo

Factory Innovation Week Tokyo (FIW) is Japan’s premier trade fair for cutting-edge manufacturing technologies, held annually at the prestigious Tokyo Big Sight exhibition center. Under the umbrella of FIW, four specialized exhibitions are brought together to present a comprehensive vision of the factory of the future. The event is organized by RX Japan Ltd., one of Asia’s largest and most experienced trade show organizers, renowned for its precise execution and global reach.

FIW is aimed at companies, decision-makers, and engineers seeking innovative technologies and solutions to make their production processes smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable. The event focuses on key themes such as digital transformation in manufacturing, robotics and automation, green technologies for CO₂ reduction, and solutions for workforce recruitment and development – all critical areas for Japan’s high-tech industries.

Exhibitors showcase highly specialized products and systems, including IoT-enabled manufacturing solutions, AI applications for production processes, autonomous mobile robots (AMR), automated guided vehicles (AGV), as well as climate-neutral production concepts and HR services for talent acquisition and upskilling.

As a unique platform for industrial innovation, FIW underscores Japan’s role as a global technology leader. Alongside live demonstrations and product premieres, the show fosters interdisciplinary exchange across sectors such as mechanical engineering, electronics, automotive, logistics, environmental technology, and human resources.

The event attracts visitors primarily from mid-sized industrial companies and large corporations – from production managers and automation engineers to executive-level decision-makers. HR professionals and sustainability officers also find tailored solutions for the challenges of today and tomorrow. While other editions of the Factory Innovation Week are held in cities like Osaka and Nagoya, the Tokyo edition is considered the flagship of the series.

Located in Tokyo’s up-and-coming bay area, Tokyo Big Sight is known for its striking architecture and is easily accessible by public transport, including the Yurikamome and Rinkai lines. In this way, FIW offers not only a rich program of content but also an ideal infrastructure for all those looking to actively shape the factory of the future.

The Factory Innovation Week will take place on 3 days from Wednesday, 21. January to Friday, 23. January 2026 in Tokyo.
