Fujitsu Forum 2017 to be held in Tokyo this May

The Fujitsu Forum 2017, Fujitsu's largest annual event, will be held May 18 and 19 at the Tokyo International Forum in Japan. This year's theme will be Human Centric Innovation: Digital Co-creation. 

In this forum, Fujitsu will introduce the digital transformations it can achieve with customers and partners, as well as its MetaArc, a digital business platform, featuring cutting-edge technologies in such areas as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), security, and mobile capabilities. In addition, visitors can experience spaces designed to generate innovation, as part of Fujitsu's open innovation initiatives.

There will be nine keynotes and presentations, as well as 14 conference sessions. The conference discussions will focus on the digital transformation of society and the economy, the digital transformation of business, transformation in ways of working, and the technology that supports the digital transformation. 

Fifty seminars, workshops, hands-on programmes, and off-site tours will also be held. In these events Fujitsu will introduce solutions and initiatives to address issues facing customers to demonstrate how new ICT is put into practice. 

Exhibits will include digital transformations that are already beginning to be deployed, while offering examples of co-creation with customers, partners, and startups. Sectors covered include manufacturing, retail, finance, local government, education, healthcare, urban infrastructure, agriculture, and sports.
