Keynote Addresses

CONFERENCE SITE
The city of Nagoya is located in the center of Honshu, the main islandof Japan, and Central Japan International Airport (Centrair) is thegateway of Central Japan to the sky, and has about 30 internationalroutes from Asia, Europe and America, and 24 domestic routes. Also
the transportation system between Centrair and Nagoya is excellent,
which takes 28 minutes by train or 30-40 minutes by car. Nagoya has
good access to Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka and all other areas in Japan.
In Nagoya, traditional industries like ceramics and textiles, and today’s
key industries like automobiles, aviation and machine tools havedeveloped, and Nagoya plays an important role in Japan’s industrial
society.
Today, Nagoya grabs attention and continues to develop as a Japaneseinternational city.
The Nagoya Congress Center is located about 6 km from Nagoya
station, and is accessible from Nagoya station by about 20 minutes by
subway and a further 5 minutes on foot. This convention center, with adesign motif of a swan poised for flight, consists of four buildings. The
various types of conference rooms make this center a suitable for
IDW ’11.
