Japan Seminar on Growth Strategy in a Post-Demographic Expansion Era

About this seminar

Overview

The rules of growth in the food industry are being rewritten.

As populations age and traditional sources of demand slow, food and consumer goods companies must rethink how they create value, innovate, and compete. Japan is at the forefront of this transformation, offering an early view into the future of consumer demand, while Korea is beginning to face many of the same structural shifts.

This executive seminar examines how leading companies are adapting to these changes, where new growth opportunities are emerging, and what strategic capabilities will define success in the next decade

Do any of these challenges sound familiar?

  • Your growth targets are under pressure, but the root cause is unclear
  • Your product portfolio was built for a younger, growing consumer base
  • You see the silver economy as a trend, but have not translated it into a growth strategy
  • You are unsure which adjacent categories or geographies represent real opportunity
  • You are unsure how demographic change will reshape your category over the next 5–10 years
  • You see growth opportunities in health, functionality, and premiumization, but are unsure where to focus
  • Your domestic market is becoming increasingly mature, and future growth opportunities are harder to identify
  • You are exploring international expansion but are uncertain which markets and growth models are most relevant

What you will take away?

This seminar delivers executive-level insight across five interconnected themes:

  • How demographic contraction is reshaping consumption — and what it means for your portfolio
  • Where the real growth opportunities lie: functional foods, silver-focused innovation, adjacent categories
  • How leading CPG and F&B companies are redesigning their growth and innovation models
  • How to connect market intelligence with R&D and product transformation decisions
  • How Evalueserve integrates competitive, consumer, and innovation intelligence into strategic action
