Initiatives as an International Conference Center

Attracting International Conferences

Overseas Promotion

We actively exhibit at MICE trade fairs held in Europe and North America such as IMEX and IBTM. By participating regularly, we are able to develop trusted relationships with the headquarters of international organizations and overseas core PCOs (Professional Congress Organizers), leading to an increased number of international conferences that we bid for directly.

AIME 2017 – Participated for the first time in Melbourne


IBTM World 2022 – Participated for the first time in 3 years after the COVID-19 pandemic in Barcelona

Dedicated Team for Attracting International Conferences

We have established a system that provides total support for attracting international conferences, from the creation of proposals and assistance with presentations to site visits for selecting venues. Experienced staff who have received training from specialist institutions provide full-scale support for bidding.

Facilities Designed for International Meetings

Variety of Meeting Rooms and Spaces for Socializing

In addition to a diverse range of 70 meeting rooms, there are many other spaces that can enhance socialization between meetings, including spacious lobbies and lounges, a Japanese garden that can also host parties, and a traditional Japanese teahouse.
IROS 2022

AV and Telecommunications

An optical fiber cable network connects the main venues, and audio and video can be centrally managed, making it possible to respond to sudden changes during an event. Ten rooms are equipped with simultaneous interpretation booths and many live broadcasts have also been held, with consistently high praise for the support provided by our experienced operators.

High Speed Internet Connection

Dedicated NURO optical lines were installed in the Kyoto International Conference Center in 2021 to ensure that large hybrid conferences can be held stress-free. In 2022, we further introduced Flet’s Hikari Cross, a new high-speed optical line.

Security and VIP Support

Surrounded by mountains and a lake, ICC Kyoto was designed as a facility for international conferences, so it is easy to set up security measures. Having successfully hosted numerous UN-sponsored conferences and intergovernmental conferences to date, we have earned a high degree of trust from international organizers. There are also VIP rooms for receiving royal family members and other important guests.

Strengthened Hygiene Management

In April 2021, ICC Kyoto became the first international conference center and exhibition hall in Asia to acquire *GBAC STAR™ accreditation, which certifies that the facility meets international standards for cleaning, disinfection, and infectious disease prevention. ICC Kyoto was accredited for the third time in April 2023.

*GBAC STAR™ Facility Accreditation is an international accreditation for outbreak prevention that was developed in May 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic by the Global Biorisk Advisory Council, which is a division of ISSA, a worldwide organization with the most established reputation in the cleaning industry.
