A Super City is an initiative that aims to realize a better future society where residents feel “I want to live here, and I want to keep living here.” It does this by leveraging future technologies such as AI (artificial intelligence) and big data (massive collections of information) to solve everyday problems. It promotes the utilization of data and reforms regulations and systems, implementing various cutting-edge services that support daily life within the community.
Tsukuba City's past initiatives and proposals were recognized, leading to its designation by the government on April 12, 2022, as a “Super City-type National Strategic Special Zone.”
