3 Innovations of 'APOCA Business Networking Event' That Accelerate Business

Previous cross-industry networking events focused on 'real connections (networking)' among participants.

However, 'APOCA Business Networking Event,' leveraging its strength as a media company, is a completely new platform that provides 'overwhelming customer acquisition' on the spot, alongside networking.

1. [First in Japan] Just by participating, get 'free distribution' of business PR ads nationwide!

Its biggest feature is the fusion with the 'digital app network (point-collecting user network),' a first in Japan.

Simply by participating in the networking event, not only will your real-world network expand, but your business PR ads will also be distributed for free to 'APOCA Link' users nationwide.

This is an unprecedented system that directly leads to sales expansion, ensuring it's not just 'meet and greet and done.'

2. 'Direct Sales' Content Where Encounters Become Results

'We had good encounters, but it seems like it will take time to lead to sales...' This common networking event problem is broken.

While finding real collaboration partners, you can simultaneously approach general consumers digitally, making participation itself a 'direct sales' business community that directly leads to increased sales.

3. Simultaneous Launch in All 47 Prefectures! Towards Japan's Largest Business Infrastructure

Bringing excellent local technologies and services to the nation.

By developing communities simultaneously in all 47 prefectures, we support flexible sales expansion tailored to business needs, from close-knit local connections to large-scale business opportunities targeting all of Japan.

Background and Vision: From an Era of 'Competition' to an Era of 'Coexistence and Co-prosperity'

In the coming era, the business model of 'competition,' where companies fight over market share, has reached its limits.

The key to future business growth lies in how we can join hands and leverage each other's strengths for 'coexistence and co-prosperity.'

'APOCA Business Networking Event' is not just a place for exchanging business cards.

It is a 'co-creation space' for managers and business owners to join hands, create new value, and energize the Japanese business scene from the ground up.

Through this platform, we will fully support aspiring businesses nationwide.

About 'APOCA Link,' the creator of the business networking event content

========================

'Points,' which have become indispensable in our lives.

However, many people have concerns such as 'the expiration date passed before I knew it' or 'it's too small an amount to feel like I'm accumulating anything.'

The newly revamped 'APOCA Link' aims to overturn the common sense of point-collecting and become the 'warmest' economy in Japan, where users, companies, and society are connected by 'thank yous.'

Origin of the Service Name: What is APOCA?

A (Arigato - Thank you)

PO (Point)

CA (Coupon)

A (Arigato - Thank you)

LINK (Connect)

Born with the desire to connect a chain of 'thank yous' through coupon points.

===================

🚀 '3 Absolute Benefits' That Excite Users

APOCA Link offers not just discounts, but 'security' and 'fun' that enrich your life.

1. Anywhere, with just one use, 'Always 100 Points'!

At affiliated stores, you will always receive 100P for each visit or use, regardless of the amount spent.

No more disappointment from 'I didn't get many points because I only bought a little...' You can immediately use the accumulated points for discounts on your next visit.

2. Breaking Industry Norms with 'No Point Expiration'!

APOCA points have no expiration date.

You don't have to worry about expiration and use them unnecessarily; you can save them carefully at your own pace for when you truly need them. This allows for a new way of saving, like preparing for a large expense several years from now.

3. Every Scene in Town Becomes a 'Point-Collecting' Stage!

From restaurants and hair salons to dry cleaners, and even weddings and funerals.

You'll be surprised by 'You can use it here too!?'

Furthermore, it's being introduced at local festivals, markets, and in the future, at large events like festivals and fireworks displays.

Your entire daily life will be connected with APOCA.
