Business Overview

~ Dialogue in Quiet ~ Beyond the language barrier, people become more free. Dialogue in Silence is an entertainment where you can enjoy dialogue beyond the language barrier in a world without sound. The experience will be guided by a deaf attendant who is a master of dialogue without relying on voice. Participants wear sound-blocking headsets and experience a sense of freedom in silence, enhancing concentration, observation and expression. They then discover ways to communicate with each other without using sound or voice, such as body language. Even if you speak a different language, you'll be able to interact more than you'd expect. Held in Germany in 1998, it has since been held in France, Israel, Mexico, Turkey, and China. More than 1 million people around the world have experienced it so far. As we approach the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games, it will be an experience that fosters our "spirit of hospitality" and enhances hospitality.
