Rust Global: Tokyo — Connecting the Rust Ecosystem Across Industries & Regions
The Rust Foundation is delighted to announce the next installment in our Rust Global event series: Rust Global: Tokyo, taking place on Monday, December 8, 2025 — right before Open Source Summit Japan!
About Rust Global
Rust Global a series of Rust Foundation-hosted events and event tracks designed to spotlight the use of Rust in production and professional environments. Each Rust Global gathering brings together industry and government leaders, enterprise adopters, and professional Rust developers to exchange ideas, share experiences, and build connections across sectors and regions.
Often co-located with major Rust and open source conferences, these events focus on real-world use cases of Rust — from automotive and finance to infrastructure, embedded systems, and beyond. Above all, Rust Global aims to strengthen professional networks and foster meaningful collaboration between organizations advancing the language’s adoption at scale.
Spotlight on Japan
Rust Global: Tokyo will convene members of the Rust Foundation community, local Rust developers, and industry experts for an evening of conversation and knowledge sharing. The event will feature:
- Lightning talks highlighting how organizations are using Rust in production across different domains.
- Updates on ongoing Rust Foundation initiatives, including efforts related to safety-critical systems and enterprise adoption.
- Networking and community building, providing a space for Rust professionals and ecosystem partners to connect, collaborate, and grow.
We’re also pleased to be working with Tokyo Rust to help shape the program and highlight local expertise.
