• Tokyo Big Sight (Tokyo International Exhibition Center): Tokyo Big Sight is Japan's flagship large-scale exhibition and convention complex. While larger and in Tokyo, it is highly comparable to ATC in its event venue rental model, exhibition hall operations, and trade show organizer customer base.
• AEON Mall Co., Ltd. AEON Mall operates a national portfolio of large-scale shopping malls across Japan. It is comparable to ATC's retail and F&B tenant rent revenue stream and large-footprint complex operations, though at vastly greater scale and without ATC's exhibition/MICE specialization.
• LaLaport EXPOCITY: LaLaport EXPOCITY is a large-scale commercial and entertainment complex near Osaka's Expo '70 Commemorative Park. It is comparable to ATC's mixed-use retail, dining, and entertainment components, though it does not replicate ATC's convention/MICE infrastructure.
