Mitsui Chemicals to Exhibit at TICAD Business Expo & Conference

Mitsui Chemicals, Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Osamu Hashimoto) will exhibit at the "TICAD Business Expo & Conference" held in Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, from Wednesday, August 20 to Friday, August 22, 2025.

TICAD is an international conference hosted by the Japanese government focusing on African development. The TICAD Business Expo & Conference, a concurrent event, is a platform aimed at connecting Japan and Africa through business, investment, and innovation. Japanese companies will showcase their technologies and services to heads of state, ministers, and business leaders from various African countries participating in TICAD9 (the 9th Tokyo International Conference on African Development). Furthermore, by providing Japanese companies with a wide range of information on Africa's business and investment environment, we aim to increase interest in the African market and promote the development of business relationships.

As part of its regional strategy promotion, the Mitsui Chemicals Group is advancing the development of emerging markets, with the African market—expected to grow significantly in the future—being one of its key focus areas. Through this event, we will seize business opportunities in Africa and continue to accelerate our business development to contribute to the sustainable development of the African region.
