The Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG) has announced that its official social media accounts have surpassed 1.37 million followers, showcasing the city’s culture, technological advancements, and safety measures to a global audience. These platforms provide insights into Tokyo’s vibrant life, including festivals, innovation conferences, and safety initiatives.
SusHi Tech Tokyo, Asia’s largest innovation conference, is a key feature on these channels. Held annually in April and May, the event highlights sustainable city innovations. This year, influencer Kawaii Coco shared her experience at the conference, which will next occur from 27 to 29 April 2026, bringing together global start-ups, investors, and students.
Safety is another focal point, with Tokyo Gov sharing stories about the city’s resilience. A recent collaboration with influencer Yamatrips revealed Tokyo’s underground tunnel system designed to prevent flooding. This initiative is part of TMG’s commitment to ensuring “Safety for the Next 100 Years.”
The accounts also feature interviews with international residents, offering perspectives on living and working in Tokyo. One interviewee, an Indian Ph.D. student, praised Tokyo’s diversity and business opportunities.
Tokyo Gov encourages public engagement through the #MyEdoTokyo campaign, inviting users to share photos of the city. These images may be featured on Tokyo’s official Instagram, X, or Facebook accounts, celebrating the blend of Tokyo’s historical and modern elements.
