Join autonomous town planning around the world.
Open Town is a project in which residents from all over the world and world travelers, who identify with the places they visit and their people, co-create an autonomous town and enjoy this experience.

Projects are currently being developed in 6 countries.
Crowdfunding for community development.
The world that 'Open Town' wants to achieve.
![Vision Bottom Image](/_next/image?url=%2Fassets%2Flanding%2Fdesktop%2Fimg_vision_bottom.png&w=3840&q=75)
We create an environment where towns can be co-created by the local residents facing social challenges and world travelers who empathize with them, their region, and the social challenges faced.
We aim to create a world where we can improve our world little by little.
Towns currently facing social challenges
Government and national institutions are unable to create the appropriate necessary social infrastructure.
They have no funds
They want to revitalize the town they live in and turn it into a tourist destination, but the national systems don't support this ideal.
