Social Challenges Require Technologies to Resolve
• As articulated by SDGs and the WE, it has become increasingly evident that the human kind is faced with multiple challenges that
are intertwined.
• The latest technologies, e.g., AI, IoT, robotics, Big Data, and 5G, as typically leveraged in Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0, seem to be the
“last resort” to tackle these challenges human kind has faced today.

Enhanced National Strategic Special Zone
 Designed to fast-track regulatory changes necessary for implementing super cities.
 On the condition that citizens’ consensus exists regarding local policies for designing
and implementing “super cities,” local authorities should be able to override national
laws and regulations.

20
Super City in Summary
 Showcase “holistic future state” of cities in Japan in 2030
 Shift from silo-based solution approach to comprehensive platform-based approach
 Use integrative reference architecture to efficiently enable data interoperability
 PPPP as fundamental means to implement governance
 Enhanced national strategic special zone to facilitate new technology implementation
 At least initially, only about 5 cities will be chosen as “super cities”
 Both brown- and green-field approaches acceptable
 Legislation expected be in effect this spring (cabinet decision completed)
