Punto Italia at SPEXA 2026

The Italian Trade Agency (ITA), in coordination with the Prime Minister’s Office, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, and the Italian Space Agency (ASI), supported the participation of the Italian industrial sector in the initiatives planned within the framework of the ITALY–JAPAN SPACE CONSULTATIONS, which took place in Tokyo during the last week of May 2026.
The initiative formed part of the Joint Statement between the Italian and Japanese Governments, aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation in the commercial, industrial, scientific, and security sectors related to space activities.



In this context, SPEXA – Space Business Expo, one of Japan’s leading trade fairs dedicated to the space industry and its applications, was held from 27 to 29 May 2026 at Tokyo Big Sight South Hall. Organized annually, SPEXA serves as a key platform for business development and networking among companies, institutions, investors, and the research community.
The first Italian participation organized by the ITA Tokyo Office / Trade Promotion Section of the Embassy of Italy represented a strategic opportunity to showcase Italian companies and organizations interested in identifying new industrial and commercial partners and strengthening their positioning within a rapidly expanding ecosystem supported by significant public and private investment.
