Microalgae

MATSURI was featured in “Road to Expo 2025”, a special episode by Euronews, a pan-European television news network. This episode, broadcast in 10 languages and 160 countries, explores future technologies shaping the sea, sky, and land, set to be presented at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai. CHITOSE was selected alongside six other Japanese companies and startups recognized for their excellence in innovation.

The video highlights the potential of microalgae in producing a variety of organic materials, including lipids, sugars, and proteins—essential resources for humanity. To make microalgae-derived products even more accessible, CHITOSE is currently working to expand its production facilities to 100 hectares by 2027.

We are excited to welcome you to the algae-focused exhibition at the Farm Area and Factory Area of the Japan Pavilion at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, ― with CHITOSE serving as a technical supervisor in the Farm Area, and the MATSURI project participating as a sponsor exhibitor in the Factory Area.

About MATSURI
https://matsuri.chitose-bio.com/en
MATSURI project, led by the CHITOSE Group, was launched in 2021 to establish an advanced microalgae-based industry in collaboration with partner enterprises, government and academia institutions. By 2025, it had evolved beyond microalgae into a cross-industry initiative driving the global bioeconomy forward. With a vision to realize a society powered by biotechnology, our efforts continue to expand—from AI-driven bio-manufacturing and resource circulation to sustainable agriculture. As what MATSURI means in Japanese, it is a festival that will leave its mark on human history. We invite partners from all industries to join us in shaping the future together.
