RAISE YOUR GAME

IMAGINE: YOU GET OFF THE Narita International Airport to be shuttled by a self-driving service to your hotel and back. Friendly interactive robots come to greet and serve you. All your transactions are much faster than expected, thanks to facial recognition software. You don’t even have to get around that much because a bunch of adorable robots will purchase and deliver goods to wherever you are!

It’s a well-known fact that Tokyo has been among the world’s leading high-tech cities for decades. And, they’ll be serving up some of their newest technological innovations in the upcoming 2020 Summer Olympics for all guests and athletes to enjoy.

The event will last for two weeks, between July 24 and August 9, 2020, at different venues around Tokyo. The New National Stadium will be hosting the grand opening and closing ceremonies.

Some of the events will also be held outside Tokyo, including Sapporo, Fukushima, and Hokkaido. The Judo tournaments are scheduled at the Nippon Budokan arena, the equestrian events at the Baji Koen Park, and the handball games at the Yoyogi National Gymnasium.

DRIVING SOCIAL CHANGE

Highly populated events like the Olympics are an excellent platform for demonstrating the host country’s vision to the rest of the world. This is why the organizers are harnessing the best and latest technological advancements to streamline all processes to set a positive example with regard to social impact. Also, in adherence to its commitment to sustainable urban development, several of the Olympic venues around Tokyo’s Heritage Zone have been refurbished from the 1964 Tokyo Games.
