The Japan Amusement Expo (JAEPO) hosted by Japan Amusement Industry Assn., which was originally scheduled to be held in February 2021, has been cancelled. JAIA surveyed their membership, which reached the conclusion that it was “extremely unclear whether an exhibition event with an uncertain amount of visitors from both inside and outside Japan can be held.” Ultimately, that’s the main factor that led to its cancellation. Coupled with the prevention and control of Covid-19, it was also noted that contact tracing burdens, airline transportation problems and fewer companies able to attend the exhibition due to the virus would result in a significantly smaller show. The JAIA is currently considering whether to hold a virtual event. Learn more at www.jaepo.jp. (2020/10/26)
