PNG-JAPAN BUSINESS INVESTMENT CONFERENCE 2025
​
PNG INVESTMENT PROMOTION AUTHORITY PREPARING FOR INVESTMENT MISSION TO JAPAN
​
The Papua New Guinea Investment Promotion Authority (IPA) is preparing to lead an investment mission to Japan in collaboration with the Pacific Islands Centre (PIC) in Tokyo and the PNG Embassy in Tokyo.
​
The mission includes an investment conference to be held at the ANA Intercontinental Hotel in Tokyo on the 4th of November 2025.
Themed as “50 Years of Partnership: Forging the next chapter in trade, investment and shared prosperity”, the one-day conference will feature senior government officials, industry leaders, exporters, development partners, and Japanese investors discussing possibilities of elevating trade and investment collaborations in the next 50 years. This year marks PNG’s 50 years of bilateral relations with Japan and the investment mission focuses on how the partnership can be further improved for the mutual benefit of both countries.
​
The engagement builds on the momentum of Prime Minister Hon. James Marape's official visit to Japan in July 2025, where he held high-level business dialogues with Japanese government officials and private sector leaders. It also follows the reciprocal visit of a Japanese business delegation to Port Moresby in February 2024, led by PIC.
The highlights of the mission include;
-
Targeted Business-to-Business (B2B) and Government-to-Business (G2B) meetings
-
Direct engagement with Japanese companies and institutions
-
Sectoral presentations and investment opportunity showcase
-
Networking opportunities with key stakeholders
The IPA is extending an invitation to PNG businesses and exporters who are keen on exploring the Japanese market, Japanese investors and trade representatives, development agencies, business chambers and media outlets to join the mission.
