]]> Otsukaresama deshita, Team Woven! 🎉 What an incredible milestone for everyone who helped turn this bold vision into reality.

Back in 2020, Woven City started as an ambitious dream — a futuristic city at the base of Mount Fuji. Today, it comes to life as a living testbed for the future of mobility, powered by “Kakezan” — the multiplication of diverse ideas and talents.

I had the privilege of working briefly with some of these brilliant minds, and it’s inspiring to see their hard work culminate in this launch. Now begins the next chapter of co-creation. 🚀 頑張ってください

]]> It has been inspiring to watch the steady progress of Woven City, Toyota’s ambitious vision for a fully connected, human-centered city of the future. Today at CES in Las Vegas, Akio Toyoda reflected on the five-year journey since announcing this groundbreaking concept—a living testbed in Japan designed to push the boundaries of mobility, IoT, robotics, energy, and urban innovation.

Reaching this latest milestone is a testament to the dedication and creativity of the Woven by Toyota team. What began as a bold idea has evolved into a tangible project that continues to capture global attention and excitement.

I want to extend my congratulations to the entire team driving this work forward, including Jack Yan, Andrew Lee, Kishore Kondragunta, Toshiro Hikita, Dahai Wang, Takehiro Takahashi, and many others behind the scenes. Their commitment to building the future—one experiment and iteration at a time—is truly inspiring.

I’m excited to see what comes next as Woven City continues to grow, evolve, and redefine what a next-generation urban ecosystem can look like.
