After Mingtiandi’s inaugural Tokyo Forum welcomed 208 in-person attendees in 2024 and gathered over 3,500 video plays, we are pleased to follow up on that success with a return to the Japanese capital in November 2025.
Set to be the biggest international real estate investment event in Japan during 2025, the full-day forum will bring together global investors and local decision-makers to discuss opportunities in Japan commercial, industrial, living and lodging sectors, and will also spotlight top players in exclusive one-on-one interview sessions.
Join us in November to connect with limited and general partners in the region and explore some of the most promising strategies in the Land of the Rising Sun.
