AI Innovators Forum 2026 is organized by Exa Wizards, a Tokyo-based company led by CEO Shin Harada, and is aimed at executives and DX promotion leaders. The finalized program brings together more than 40 top leaders from industry, government and academia across three venues for a single day, spanning AI-era management strategy, industry case studies and cutting-edge technology trends. Registration has already surpassed 3,000 applicants, indicating substantial interest among senior decision-makers.
The agenda includes sessions from sponsor companies such as Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, NTT Docomo Business and MS&AD, as well as case studies from companies like Astellas Pharma, AEON and Seibu Holdings. Exa Wizards itself will present on topics including AI-driven development for system renewal, AI-based human capital management for CHROs and the full scope of its new sales tech business. The event also features experience-focused content available only on-site, such as roundtables, a networking party and a hands-on session for ExaBase AI, which is described as having the top market share in third-party conversational generative AI applications for fiscal 2024.
The conference is hybrid, with in-person attendance at the Hamamatsucho Convention Hall and online participation. In-person registration closes on October 13, 2026, and online registration remains open until just before each session. Attendance is free but requires advance registration. The program may be subject to change or cancellation without notice due to unavoidable circumstances.
