Our unique global culture weaves modern Silicon Valley innovation and time-tested Japanese quality craftsmanship. We leverage these complementary strengths to amplify the capabilities of drivers, foster happiness, and elevate well-being.

TEAM
Woven City is not a smart city, it is the City as a Test-Course for newer mobility and technology. It is not a complete product, but an ever evolving living laboratory where various inventors come from all over the world to test the seeds of new technologies. Woven City’s experience aims to be beyond just a city living experience, where people support each other to realize "Well-being for all"  and feel the warmth of humanity. People who are living there will be the co-inventor for all technologies and services that will be developed at the site to support the realization of this goal.

Our mission is to help design a city as a test course for mobility that enables technology to unlock human potential to thrive.
