The German-Japanese October Technology Forum is a platform for promoting cooperation between Germany and Japan in the fields of ICT, DX and GX. It is also a leading example in the regular German-Japanese ICT policy dialogue between the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications and the German Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport.

This fourth forum will focus on climate change and the future of agriculture facing both Germany and Japan, as developed countries facing challenges, while discussing solutions using DX and GX approaches.
