The Madrid region aims to showcase its potential to international corporations, venture capital funds, and Asian startups. The delegation, including the director of Invest in Madrid, Luis Socías, will hold high-level meetings with leading firms such as Canon, Mitsubishi, and NTT, as well as engage with Spanish companies operating internationally like Gestamp.
The institutional agenda also includes contacts with the Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the signing of a commercial agreement with the prefecture of Aichi. This agreement will build upon the strategic partnership established by the President of the Community of Madrid in July 2024.
