TEAM
The Toyota Woven City is a fully connected ecosystem powered by hydrogen fuel cells to be built at the base of Mt. Fuji in Japan. It is envisioned as a ‘living laboratory’ and ‘ever-evolving,’ incorporating various types of cutting edge technologies. At the same time, it is also ‘human-centric,’ that is, it is expected to keep people safe and comfortable.

Our mission is to: 
1.  Develop services and products for Woven City
2.  Expand capabilities through long-term R&D

Our global team works with the Toyota Motor Corporation and the Toyota Research Institute in North America to develop our technologies and products.
