What was it about?

AGMA took Finnish creative industries to Japan in September-October, 2021, in a hybrid format trade program. We had 20 companies in the last phase of the program from several industries, looking for partners and clients in Japan. We had businesses from content, service and design industries, providing both products and services from their own field of expertise.  

Guests were invited to the trade event in the embassy of Finland, in the exclusive temporary building Metsäpaviljonki, a wooden pavilion built for the Olympic year. Companies pitched to the audience from Finland online. The venue also hosted a showroom for our guests to be able to look and feel some of the products produced by the companies.

AGMA’s one year long project Hitto desu! reached it's final peak on October 1st, 2021, as we organized a hybrid event in Metsäpaviljonki at the embassy of Finland in Tokyo. In this trade event we presented several creative industries and 20 companies.  

Thank you for attending!
