It is possible to create an environment that is easy for para-sports athletes to use for practice and competition venues!

Our company sponsors and cooperates with events for athletes with disabilities. During the tournament, we lend out guiding paths in accordance with the reception and court arrangements, and we also assist with their installation. - "It's an important match, so I want to focus only on the game." - "I want to increase my practice time." By installing guiding mats, athletes can move independently, which lowers the barriers to facility use. Even if the rooms used vary by tournament, flexible responses are possible with temporarily installed guiding mats. [Voices from athletes who have actually used them] ● If this becomes the norm, I can concentrate more on the match. ● I can go to the restroom alone, so I don't have to think about unnecessary things during the match. ● They are gentle on the feet and easy to understand. It's helpful to have them at my feet even with assistance. ● They are an important guide that we need. *For more details, please visit our product homepage or feel free to contact us. https://guideway.jp/

[Speaker] Mr. Takaki Miyazaki, President and CEO of NTT Circulast Corporation Director Ms. Saori Koga [Key Lecture Content] Resource circulation is becoming increasingly important from the perspectives of decarbonization and resource security, with rising expectations particularly for non-ferrous metals such as copper. However, there is a challenge in that the "flow of goods" supporting resource circulation and the "flow of information" conveying their value are disconnected, leading to insufficient communication of characteristics such as the origin of recycled materials and environmental impact, resulting in the circulation value not being properly recognized and evaluated in the market. In this lecture, we will introduce the background behind the establishment of NTT Circulast by NTT and Mitsubishi Materials, as well as the business concept that connects the flow of information and goods. Additionally, we will discuss future prospects for realizing a market where circulation value is chosen, taking into account trends in international standardization (ISO).

[Speaker] Mr. Kimihiro Horiuchi, President and CEO of Data Driven Consulting Inc. [Key Lecture Content] We are confident in the strategies created in collaboration with our internal elite and external consultants. However, we are not achieving the results we desire. Many companies facing such challenges share a common issue: a lack of execution power to realize their strategies. On the other hand, when we talk about increasing execution power, it involves complex factors such as sales, human resources, organization, and marketing, making it difficult to find effective solutions. In this lecture, we will introduce a method for building an organization with overwhelming execution power by thoroughly refining the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, which should be practiced by everyone, aimed at business owners and middle management who are struggling with such concerns.
