Will Tokyo Conclave Bolster India–Japan Ties

June 15, 2026

A high-level India–Japan conclave is scheduled to take place next week at the historic Akasaka Prince Classic House in Tokyo as both countries enter a new chapter of strategic and economic cooperation.

Organised by Connect India Japan, in collaboration with leading partners from both countries, the ‘Rising India 2’ conclave is being labelled as one of the most significant bilateral gatherings of the year. It comes at a particularly important moment as Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is expected to undertake a landmark visit to India in the coming weeks. Both nations are seeking deeper cooperation in trade, investment, technology, manufacturing, infrastructure, innovation, and regional security and the ‘Rising India 2’ event is expected to provide a powerful platform for strengthening bilateral engagement at the government and business levels.

Bringing together some of the most influential figures in the India–Japan corridor, the event will feature Japan’s Finance Minister Satsuki Katayama, former Environment Minister and Member of the House of Councillors Keiichiro Asao, Ambassador of India to Japan Nagma Mohamed Mallick, and Toshihiro Suzuki, President of Suzuki Motor Corporation, alongside distinguished leaders from government, industry, academia, and diplomacy.
