Organized by the Polish Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan (PCCIJ), the event, held 82 days before the start of the World Exhibition, was conducted under the slogan "Restarting Polish-Japanese Economic Relations."

"I am interested in various types of business: machinery, industry, energy, infrastructure, and agriculture. I would also like to learn more about collaboration with Polish companies operating in Ukraine. Combining Poland and helping Ukraine is a promising area of cooperation," said a manager from Sumitomo Corporation Europe during the business mixer, as reported by Danuta Isler.

The largest economic event in the world, EXPO 2025 in Osaka, Kansai, will begin on April 13, 2025, and run until October 13, 2025. The main theme of Poland’s participation in EXPO 2025 will be "Poland. Heritage that Drives the Future."

Under the overarching theme, “Designing Future Society for Our Lives,” the Osaka Expo is expected to attract over 28 million visitors (including 3.5 million international attendees) and feature contributions from around 150 countries, including Poland.
