'About Japan' webinar series 238: Market Situation and Potentials for Eco-Housing Materials and Technologies in Japan

15-10-2024 | 10:30 - 11:30 CET

What business opportunities does the Japanese Eco-Housing market offer to EU SMEs?

To achieve the goal of ‘net zero’ in 2050, insulation and energy efficiency in housing have been attracting more attention in Japan as these are the keys to the decarbonization of housing. The Japanese government has set ambitious targets to make Net Zero Houses the standard for new constructions by 2030, which will likely propel the adoption of sustainable housing solutions. Therefore, the market is expected to grow in the coming years and offers interesting opportunities for European technology providers.

The webinar is targeted to EU companies seeking to enter or strengthen their current positions in Japan’s Eco-Housing market.
