Concept

Today, businesses related to space are expanding around the world.

Space is not only a new industry, but also has unlimited potential to solve various issues on Earth.

X-NIHONBASHI (pronounced “cross nihonbashi”) is a project that aims to expand the space business
and create new innovations together with a wide range of players.

Various players involved in the space business gather and interact,
including the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and academic organizations.

New cooperation will grow from here.

The two hubs,
X-NIHONBASHI TOWER and X-NIHONBASHI BASE, offer various facilities.They can be used in various scenes to expand the space business.
