In its fifth year running, Japan IT Week Autumn has grown to be one of the largest comprehensive B-to-B IT shows in Japan held in the second half of the year. This year the show is expected to gather a larger number of exhibitors and professional visitors from the industry.
Overall, the show is composed of 7 independent exhibitions: 5th Cloud
Computing Expo Japan (CLOUD JAPAN Autumn), 4th Web & Mobile Marketing

Information Security Expo (IST Autumn), 4th Smartphone & Mobile Expo
(SMARTPHONE Autumn), 3rd Big Data Management Expo (BIG DATA Autumn)
(former: Big Data & Data Management Expo) and 2nd Direct Commerce
Solutions Expo (DIREX Autumn). The possible factor influencing the growth of th show may be the fact that Japan IT Week Autumn has become strongly established as the sister edition of Japan IT Week Spring since the launch 5 years ago. Japan IT Week Spring is undoubtedly the largest and best platform for industry professionals to meet and source for new business in Japan but as budget for Japanese firms generally start in Autumn, the timing to seal deals can be favourable in Autumn.

internet security has risen and as the direct commerce business in Japan
