Certainly! The Osaka Expo scheduled for 2025 differs from the one held in 1970 in several aspects. Here are the main differences and their significance:
Expo 1970 in Osaka:
Theme: ‘Progress and Harmony for Mankind’
Duration: March 15 to September 13, 1970, lasting 183 days
Number of participating countries: 77
Visitor count: Approximately 64.2 million
Main achievements: Introduction of new technologies and cultures, symbolizing Japan’s rapid economic growth
Symbol: The Tower of the Sun
Expo 2025 in Osaka:
Theme: ‘Designing Future Society for Our Lives’
Duration: April 13 to October 13, 2025, lasting 184 days
Location: Yumeshima, Osaka
Concept: Sharing global challenges and solutions, co-creating the future society
The 1970 Expo played a crucial role as a showcase for post-war Japan to demonstrate its economic recovery to the world and introduce new technologies and cultures. In contrast, the 2025 Expo aims to build a sustainable future society by sharing solutions to challenges faced by people worldwide and creating and disseminating new ideas. This is particularly important in today’s context, where there is an increased need for global cooperation and innovation.
The 2025 Expo represents an evolution from past successes, adapting to meet the needs of a new era. It is expected to be a festival of international cooperation and creativity, shaping the society of the future.
