The G7 Science and Technology Ministers’ Meeting in May put the spotlight on Sendai’s cutting-edge research and technology, its growing capacity to host world-class meetings, as well as milestones in its ongoing recovery from the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. At the same time, delegations from the most powerful nations in the world were treated to local specialties and attractions with winning hospitality.
Over two days, the delegations gathered at a traditional inn in the Akiu Onsen area, about 30 minutes from central Sendai, where they discussed inclusiveness in science, sharing research results to solve global problems, and the ethical use of research outcomes.
