Sustainable Mobility Technology Expo SuM-TECH Nagoya

The Sustainable Mobility Technology Expo (SuM-TECH) is a trade fair with a clear focus on sustainable mobility. As part of the renowned AUTOMOTIVE WORLD, it takes place annually at Port Messe Nagoya, located in the heart of Japan’s industrial and technological hub. Organized by RX Japan Ltd., one of Asia’s leading trade show organizers, SuM-TECH brings together key players in future-oriented automotive technologies.

At its core, the expo highlights technological approaches aimed at achieving climate neutrality and resource efficiency in mobility. The focus is not only on innovative products but also on their practical implementation in industrial processes. SuM-TECH positions itself as a highly specialized platform for solution-oriented dialogue between industry and research.

The exhibition features sustainable materials, advanced recycling technologies for batteries and vehicle components, and climate-friendly manufacturing processes. It also provides space for developments in synthetic fuels, hydrogen-based propulsion systems, and energy or CO₂ monitoring technologies. Lightweight construction concepts using high-strength materials, along with contributions from start-ups and research institutions, broaden the spectrum with forward-looking ideas.

The event is designed for companies and institutions seeking viable technologies to reduce CO₂ emissions and enhance efficiency across the automotive value chain. Professionals from the automotive, mechanical engineering, chemical, materials science, environmental and energy sectors meet here with decision-makers and innovation leaders from Japan, Asia, and around the world.

As an integral part of AUTOMOTIVE WORLD, SuM-TECH is embedded in a comprehensive trade fair concept that spans events in both Tokyo and Nagoya. This structure offers international companies a valuable opportunity to enter the Japanese market or strengthen existing business relationships.

Port Messe Nagoya offers excellent accessibility and a modern infrastructure. Located just minutes from the train station and well connected to the airport, the venue provides ideal conditions for a successful trade show experience in one of Japan’s most economically dynamic regions.
