Selection results for the implementing company for the "Commissioned work related to the branding of Osaka, the city of water"

The Water Metropolis Osaka Consortium (hereinafter referred to as SOC) was established in 2017 and, based on the "Basic Policy on Promoting Water and Light Urban Development" presented by the "Water and Light Urban Development Promotion Council," implements projects aimed at realizing "Osaka, the Capital of Water and Light," and is promoting initiatives that contribute to improving the urban appeal of Osaka.
Furthermore, during the 2025 Osaka-Kansai World Expo, many people from both Japan and abroad visited Osaka, bringing vibrancy not only to the Expo site but also to the city as a whole. Under these circumstances, as the "Water Metropolis Osaka Vision," formulated in 2020, is coming to an end, we have formulated the "Water Metropolis Osaka Vision 2030" in February 2026. This vision aims to inherit the Expo's philosophy of "Designing a Future Society Where Life Shines," respond to the changes in the flow of people from both Japan and abroad due to the opening of the Integrated Resort Facility (Osaka IR) in 2030 and the opening of the Naniwasuji Line in 2031, and to refine Osaka into a unique and sustainable water metropolis that will be passed on to future generations.
The "Water City Osaka Vision 2030" advocates for "Sustainable Co-creation of Waterfronts: Water City Osaka," emphasizing the importance of further revitalizing water corridors, including creating attractive waterfront areas and developing spaces and environments that contribute to the revitalization of water transport. 2026 marks the start of the "Water City Osaka Vision 2030," and in order to define the direction of the five-year strategy and take the first step in its implementation, we are soliciting proposals for a brand strategy for Water City Osaka and implementation methods for promoting Water City Osaka based on that strategy, after reviewing the SOC's efforts to date.
