Archive assets are those created and used in connection with the preparation and operation of the Games that possess historical value and serve to pass on the memories and records of the Games. With the approval of World Athletics (hereinafter referred to as "WA"), they are important legacy assets that should be preserved and managed long-term and passed on to future generations.
Archive assets include tangible assets such as medals, competition equipment, and mascots, as well as documentary assets such as records of the Games and operational know-how. In order to establish a framework for the secure preservation and utilization of archive assets, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has concluded the "Tokyo 2025 World Athletics Championships Archive Asset Agreement" (hereinafter referred to as the "Archive Agreement") with the World Association of Athletics Federations (WA), the Japan Association of Athletics Federations (JAAF), and the World Athletics Foundation.
The archive agreement designates the Japan Association of Athletics Federations (JAAF) as the administrator of the archive assets, responsible for their preservation, maintenance, and utilization (archive organization). The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is responsible for preserving, managing, and utilizing a portion of the archive assets and for supporting the archive organization.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government will appropriately preserve, manage, and utilize the archive assets in accordance with the "Tokyo 2025 World Athletics Championships Archive Asset Agreement."
