CHITOSE GROUP | EXPO 2025

CHITOSE, a leader of the bioeconomy,
is building a prosperous future lasting for the next millennium.

At the Japan Pavilion, EXPO 2025,
we will unveil the unlimited potential of algae in making it a reality.

Imagine a future...

where microalgae keep us full, beautiful, warm, and even power our jet planes.
In such a future, a society is built on photosynthesis and people can enjoy prosperity in a sustainable way.

When we look back from that future, it would be amazing to say,
“The explosive influence of microalgae started at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo.”

Through this Japan Pavilion’s exhibition, we hope visitors will realize that
the vision of a future powered by microalgae is not just a dream,
but a reality that is already within reach—just beyond the display glass.
