Welcome to EmPath's journey in 2026. This week, we'll introduce you to the "Four Pillars," the core of EmPath's activities.

This year, too, we will create spaces where hearts connect through culture, dialogue, art, and community. I am truly delighted to be able to share this with you.

The Open Factory World Forum supports local industries and creates jobs. Through exchange, it rediscovers the value of local areas and promotes the sharing of technology and knowledge. Furthermore, it connects approximately 300 Open Factory organizations around the world and supports the revitalization of local industries and communities through cooperation.

Coffee Cultures United connects producers and shops worldwide through coffee, promoting exchange and cooperation within the industry. We deepen cultural exchange, support the revitalization of local communities, and foster the sustainable development of the coffee industry. Furthermore, we expand multicultural understanding and create spaces where people can connect.

Art Festival & Happiness offers opportunities to learn about Japanese culture through its worldview and language learning. It builds a platform where ambitious individuals from around the world can learn from and interact with each other. Furthermore, it operates "Online Workshops" to deepen knowledge, expand intercultural understanding, and broaden global connections.
