[Initiatives in Vietnam]
From the development of advanced IT personnel to the development of both Japan and Vietnam!

To provide high-quality ICT systems, we promote offshore development mainly in Vietnam (Hanoi, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City). We are working to strengthen our offshore development system through alliances with Vietnamese companies and the recruitment and training of Vietnamese students. In 2023, we are working to develop ICT human resources in Vietnam, in addition to strengthening our offshore development system, based on a capital and business alliance with Techzen, a company established by our alumni, and industry-academia collaboration with Da Nang University, a Vietnamese national general university.
Through these efforts, we are contributing to the development of the Vietnamese economy and to solving the social issue of the "shortage of advanced IT personnel" in Japan.
