The 2024 PEP Summit, themed "Shaping Japan's 2050 through Policy Entrepreneurship," featured panel discussions on policy entrepreneurship across various fields to create the society of 2050.

2022

How can we create such a “Free, Open, and Sustainable Future”? At the 2022 PEP Summit, discussions were held from three perspectives: policy entrepreneurship related to children, policy entrepreneurship in the international community, and policy entrepreneurship in the next decade.

2021

As examples emerge of various stakeholders joining forces to implement policies, we engaged in ongoing dialogue about the roles that policy entrepreneurs, business leaders, journalists, and others in different positions should play in solving social issues.

2020

Amid the unprecedented crisis caused by the spread of the COVID-19, there is a growing need for industries to come together across boundaries to shape policies. We held an online symposium as a platform to share wisdom and discuss the future of Japan.

2019

In this era of turbulent change, marked by the Fourth Industrial Revolution and intensifying geopolitical competition, we invited experts from various fields to discuss new methods for solving policy issues and the necessity of policy entrepreneurship as a career path to support these efforts.
