[Call for Exhibitors] “The World in Our Minds 2025: Neurodiversity”

We are now accepting applications from exhibitors for this year’s “The World in Our Minds 2025: Neurodiversity” exhibition, which will be held on Sunday, November 2, and Monday, November 3, 2025 (a national holiday)!

The human brain and nervous system are incredibly diverse, and each of us has our own unique characteristics. This is known as “neurodiversity.” Through hands-on experiences, this exhibition conveys the message that by respecting individual characteristics and creating appropriate environments, we can alleviate the “difficulties of daily life” and transform personal traits into “strengths.”

This project is being carried out in collaboration with universities, companies, research institutes, and organizations, transcending organizational boundaries.

Through this exhibition, we aim to build a neurodiverse society where each individual can thrive in their own way.

Last year, the event featured 55 exhibits spanning industry and academia and attracted 16,252 visitors. We encourage representatives from research institutions, companies, and educational institutions to consider participating in this exhibition.

For more details, please review the application guidelines via the link below and apply using the form.
