As space development is rapidly accelerating around the world, the space industry in Japan has become more active and has grown into a large business market due to the successful moon landing of JAXA'S SLIM, the successful launch of the H3 rocket, and various technological developments and challenges by the private companies. In addition, the establishment of the "Space Strategy Fund" by the government and other measures will further stimulate the participation of private companies and universities, and the space industry is expected to expand even more rapidly as a growth industry in the future.

The space industry is now at a turning point as a business, and has become a major international business market. The 5th ISIEX 2026, the International Space Industry Exhibition, will be held with the aim of opening up the global market for space development and utilization of various excellent technologies and services, including Japanese manufacturing, and leading to the growth and expansion of the space industry in Japan and the world.

In addition to the articles in conjunction with the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun newspaper and web media, various experts in space development and companies involved in the space industry will speak at the "Lunar Development Forum -NIKKANKOGYO MOON PRESS-", which will be held as a collaborative project of ISIEX.

ISIEX 2026 will be an opportunity for companies, organizations, and academia from a wide range of countries and fields, as well as space agencies from around the world, to take part in the exhibition.

We look forward to your participation.
