Business Content

We are a startup AI company originating from a laboratory at Hokkaido University on a mission to apply AI research to practical use for the benefit of society.
We operate three businesses: AI research and business development, which develops solutions to address our clients' issues; intellectual property and licensing, which creates and sells licenses for the technologies and knowledge accumulated to date as well as products and other assets; and human resources development services, under which we offer seminars and workshops to connect highly skilled AI engineers with the companies that need them, while also training IT personnel to become AI engineers.
All of these businesses see requests from a wide range of industries and business categories, indicating the growing expectations and attention being placed on AI-based problem-solving.
In the future, we intend to increase needs in fields rooted in local communities, such as fishing and agriculture, which are industries native to Hokkaido, and to thus further contribute to regional revitalization.
