2025 Annual Corporate Members’ Retreat

The SVJP’s flagship event, the 2025 Annual Corporate Members’ Retreat, was held September 11-14 in Half Moon Bay. This year was especially meaningful as it marked the 10th anniversary of the Silicon Valley Japan Platform – a decade of fostering innovation, collaboration, and impact between Japan and the U.S.

Over three days, visionary leaders and entrepreneurs from across industries came together for insightful discussions, meaningful connections, and cultural exchange. Sessions explored some of the most critical and exciting topics shaping our future, including AI in physical world, the rise of AI agents, and the U.S. political landscape and global implications.

The Annual Retreat concluded with a special 10th Anniversary Gala at the Cantor Arts Center, celebrating the remarkable community we’ve build together and the progress we’ve achieved over the past decade.
