OPEN HUB for Smart World, operated by NTT Communications, serves as an innovative platform for business co-creation aimed at addressing societal challenges while realizing a prosperous future. This experimental hub seeks to implement concepts that contribute to a "Smart World," where diverse professionals, known as catalysts, collaborate with partner companies to develop groundbreaking ideas and advanced technologies.

OPEN HUB offers four essential functions: knowledge sharing, networking, experiential learning, and creation. By leveraging these experiences, businesses can generate new opportunities and implement effective societal solutions. The space includes both physical locations in Tokyo’s Otemachi and a virtual park, combining the real and digital to enhance collaboration.

Members can participate in various activities, including workshops, events, and exclusive content that feature expert insights and industry trends. Through the proprietary "PLAY" program, OPEN HUB supports tailored project designs to accelerate business ideas and foster new ventures, combining the assets and capabilities of the NTT Group with participant innovations.
