What does artificial intelligence say at the “Sushi Tech” conference?
It has become necessary to search for innovative solutions to the increasing problems that threaten the sustainability of our planet, and with the advancement of technology and the emergence of new tools, opportunities are formed to build a sustainable future, and from here the importance of events that bring together creative minds from around the world to discuss the most prominent issues we face, and one of the most important of these global events is the SusHi Tech Tokyo 2025 conference in Tokyo.
This conference is a global beacon that inspires humanity with the possibility of building sustainable cities using the latest technologies produced by the human mind, and from here you will reviewEarth Guards In this article, how artificial intelligence contributes to the “Sushi Tech Tokyo 2025” conference in shaping the features of this sustainable future, as artificial intelligence is at the forefront of innovation in multiple fields, from management Energy and smart transportation, to monitor air quality and improve urban planning; So keep reading.
Introducing the conference and its importance globally
Between May 8 and 10, 2025, the Japanese capital, Tokyo, will host the “Sushi Tech” conference, which is the largest startup conference in Asia, and the only one of its kind in Japan. It represents a global platform that brings together local and international innovation systems, with the aim of confronting common urban challenges, most important of which is building sustainable smart cities capable of adapting to the future.
The conference is receiving increasing attention from governments, international institutions, and major technology companies, due to the strategic opportunity it represents to discover technical solutions capable of addressing the environmental, food, and energy crises. The conference is also considered an important station in the path of global digital transformation.
The “Sushi Tech” conference is also an interactive space that allows young innovators and entrepreneurs from all over the world to exchange ideas and experiences, and develop joint projects that contribute to reducing pollution and improving energy efficiency. Hence, it highlights the most prominent modern technologies, and also launches a new series of innovative content under the title “Focus on,” which reviews advanced technological fields that hold great promise for the future, and highlights the pivotal role of digital transformation in building cities. Sustainable.
Conference Topics
The selection of the themes of the “Sushi Tech” conference for the year 2025 reflects a global awareness that technology is a central tool in confronting global crises, such as climate change to food security, and other crises. Below we will review these themes in detail, focusing on how each of them turns into tangible contributions within the framework of achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The first axis: Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Artificial intelligence is one of the most prominent areas of digital transformation that contributes to improving the efficiency of consumption of natural resources, reducing carbon emissions, and in designing sustainable cities. Artificial intelligence has become an indispensable strategic necessity. Thanks to its ability to analyze big data and predict future usage patterns, artificial intelligence allows decision makers to direct solutions towards vital areas such as smart transportation, waste management, renewable energy, and urban planning. Which contributes to improving the efficiency of resource distribution and building more sustainable cities.
At the “Sushi Tech” conference, it is expected that emerging companies will showcase technologies based on artificial intelligence in monitoring pollution, managing traffic congestion, and measuring energy consumption in buildings. Which helps achieve environmental sustainability, and contributes directly to achieving Goal (13) of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), related to combating climate change.
The second axis: quantum technologies
If artificial intelligence is the mind of the smart city, then quantum computing is its accelerating pulse towards the future. This technology – which is still in the nascent stage – promises extraordinary computational capabilities capable of solving complex problems in seconds, which opens broad horizons for facing the urban and environmental challenges facing cities in the future.
At this year’s Sushi Tech conference, attendees will be treated to amazing sessions and presentations on the quantitative possibilities in developing traffic systems, climate models, and designing sustainable infrastructure. This quantitative revolution, with the energy it carries to solve major dilemmas, is considered a new pillar for achieving Goal (9) of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which is “industry, innovation and infrastructure.”
The third axis: Food Technology (Food Tech)
A sustainable city cannot be imagined without a safe and flexible food infrastructure. Food security is one of the basic pillars for achieving sustainable development, especially in light of rapid urban growth and the challenges of climate change. Here, food technology emerges as one of the vital solutions that redraws the landscape of food production and distribution within cities.
This field is witnessing an unprecedented boom represented by vertical agriculture in narrow urban spaces, the development of plant-based and laboratory-based protein alternatives, and the adoption of advanced techniques for preserving food and reducing loss and waste. These innovations are directly reflected in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), by reducing water and energy consumption, reducing emissions, and enhancing the efficiency of resource use, which contributes to achieving goal (12) of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) “responsible consumption and production.”
Egyptian participation in the “Sushi Tech” conference
Amid this global movement, Egypt appears with its effective presence, as it participates in this conference represented by Dr. Amr Talaat, Minister of Communications and Information Technology, who left for Tokyo to participate in the conference activities, on a three-day visit, during which he holds a series of meetings with Japanese government officials, representatives of innovation centers, and educational and research institutions, with the aim of opening new horizons for cooperation between Egypt and Japan, in the fields of artificial intelligence, building digital capabilities, and promoting a culture of innovation in society. Al-Masry.
Egyptian participation is not limited to government representation, but extends to include the private sector, as the minister is scheduled to hold meetings with representatives of major Japanese companies working in technology, with the aim of attracting investments to the Egyptian market and supporting the local innovation system.
It is a step that embodies Egypt’s keenness to keep pace with the global digital transformation and explore new horizons for cooperation in these fields. It also reflects Egypt’s Vision 2030, which places innovation and digital education at the heart of its development strategies. By being open to global experiences, Egypt seeks to enhance digital transformation in multiple fields and establish a sustainable economy built on knowledge and technology.
These joint efforts open new horizons to enhance international cooperation in the fields of digital transformation and sustainable development, andDefenders of the Earth appreciates Egypt’s participation in these important global events, and looks forward to the tangible results that will help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), thus contributing to building a better future.
