▼Event Overview
What do you like about Shibuya Ward?
Shibuya, where many people have visited, interacted, and created new cultures, is truly a city born from "human activity." Music, fashion, IT, startups... the activities of each era have given birth to new cultures and spread them to the world. So, what does the future hold for Shibuya as it continues to evolve?

At this event, we will consider questions such as "What will the future of urban communities be like?" and "What is sustainable urban development?" with speakers from across the government, businesses, and local organizations.
People who live in Shibuya Ward, people who work there, people who study there, and people who visit there for fun. Why not bring together each of our perspectives and work together to envision the future of Shibuya?
Your voice and ideas could be the first step in changing the future of this city.

▼What is OPEN SESAME talk?
This project is set in Shibuya and involves everyone searching for the key to opening up the future.
We will discuss the city's challenges and attractions in an open manner, and together we will paint a picture of a new Shibuya.

She is currently the youngest member of the Shibuya Ward Assembly and serves as the chairperson of the Ward Residents' Welfare Committee. In 2023, she founded Tsugiste Co., Ltd. to address "idol career and health issues." She is the mother of one child.

He was in charge of attracting "Kosugiyu" and produced the music video for "Wednesday Campanella" as part of the pre-opening promotion.
Starting in 2022, he will be responsible for launching the urban digital transformation project "SHIBUYA MABLs," which aims to rebuild the relationships between people and people, and between people and the city, set in Shibuya. He is working on designing serendipitous encounters in urban spaces and loose connections that transcend attributes.
