Toward the Realization of
Society 5.0
– Driving the future of digital industry –
As Japan’s leading industry association in the digital sphere, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association (JEITA) covers the entire spectrum of technologies that power a digital society, from semiconductors and electronic components and devices to solutions and services.
In recent years, advances in generative AI and other digital technologies have ushered in an era of profound social and industrial transformation—and the role expected of the digital industries continues to grow, encompassing responses to green transformation (GX) and economic security. For Japan to achieve sustained growth, it will be essential to accelerate creation of new, digitally-driven value while also tackling societal challenges through cross-sector and cross-industry collaboration.
JEITA will use activities such as policy recommendations, standardization, international partnership, and personnel development to help advance the digital industries and realize prosperous society.
We will continue to pursue co-creation with member companies, related organizations, and various other stakeholders, working proactively to enhance Japan’s international competitiveness and build a sustainable society for all.
