(Reference) 2025 Japan International Exposition, Pasona Group Pavilion "PASONA Natureverse" Concept

Pasona Group's job is to "make the most of people. We aim to realize a society in which everyone can play an active role in a healthy and vigorous manner.
Thank you for life. We want to create a world where everyone in the world, from children to the elderly, respects life and is filled with gratitude for it.
Our society is part of the natural world, and humans are beings kept alive by nature.
But at some point, we take it for granted and forget to be thankful for it.
We can say "thank you" to nature for the abundant blessings it gives us humans and for the fact that we are alive today.
We want to create a new world where "thank you" resonates, and leave it to the next generation.
We hope that many people from around the world will visit our pavilion and become future creators who together will create the "Natureverse (Nature x Universe)," a world where "Thank you" resonates.
That is the wish of the Pasona Group.

Main Theme of the Pavilion

(1) Body: Medical care/food
We create a healthy body through the latest medical treatment and food.

Dr. Yoshiki Sawa, Professor Emeritus of Osaka University and a leading expert in regenerative medicine using iPS cells, has been invited to participate in the production of the exhibition as the executive producer of the pavilion.

(2) Heart: Motivation for living/Compassion
A lot has happened in our society since Corona.
Now is the time to create a society where everyone can think about their future with a spirit of "compassion," where diversity abounds, and where people have a sense of fulfillment in life.

(3) Kizuna: Working / Mutual Aid
We will create a truly affluent society, a "mutual society" or "mutual society," in which all people can work and live happily.
