Our company will hold a seminar titled "Akita Prefecture's New Challenge Towards Sustainable Sewerage Management." In Japan, a leading country in population decline, Akita Prefecture is experiencing the fastest rate of population decrease and aging in the nation. As a pioneering prefecture in addressing these issues, it promotes the "functional integration" of the prefecture and municipalities through innovative approaches.
