TGC launched the 'TGC Regional Revitalization Project' in 2015 with the philosophy of regional revitalization, which is unique to TGC, not only by disseminating the charm and industry of the region nationwide using the TGC platform but also by providing opportunities to experience 'Tokyo's cutting edge.' Starting with 'TGC Kitakyushu 2015' held in the same year, we have expanded our host regions year by year to include Hiroshima, Toyama, Shizuoka, Kumamoto, Wakayama, Ehime, and Kagawa. This time, the host location is Niigata Prefecture, a land rich in nature and culture. Niigata, known as one of Japan's largest rice-producing regions, boasts a food culture nurtured by its fertile land and a rich soil for culture and arts that has produced numerous creators and artists. It is here that TGC will be held for the first time. The theme is 'SHINING NEXT'. In July, when brilliant light shines down, the 'light' of Niigata will transform into the energy of a new era. Where rich nature, food, culture and arts nurtured by tradition, and fresh talent intersect, leading to a 'next' scene that no one has ever seen before. We aim to create an event that realizes a moment where everyone becomes the protagonist and lights of the future gather, and through the excitement generated by TGC, Japan's largest fashion festival that garners overwhelming support from young people, we will transmit the charm of Niigata to the whole country and the world, creating new value. The Platinum Partner is NAMICS Corporation, which engages in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of materials used in semiconductors and electronic components, based on its corporate philosophy of 'achieving happiness for all and prosperity of nature through creation and innovation.'
