Guidance for the future is here. 9 days wrapped in ART & TECH.
Always express new expression to the world without being bound by the established concept.
It is not just smart things never sharpened.
Rather it is free and rough, but full of hints for tomorrow which I have not seen yet.

Media Ambition Tokyo [MAT] which is celebrating the seventh this year is a real showcase that implements urban implementation of state-of-the-art technology culture with an experimental approach.
At the center of Roppongi, cutting-edge art, images, talk shows, etc. gather in various places in Tokyo such as Shibuya, Ginza, Toranomon and Daiba. With innovators and companies from various fields in Japan and abroad participating, various programs expanded around the city, and MAT continues to grow as an activity to include them.
Towards the future ahead of 2020, when the way of urban systems including mobility, communication, and information changes greatly, present the possibility of technology to create the future of the city from Tokyo to the world, We aim to become a festival of technology art that will change the future.
