TENRYU Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takashi Fukumoto), operator of the long-term internship job board U-inTern for students from top universities, hosted a recruitment networking event on Wednesday, June 10, at the cafeteria of the University of Tokyo Komaba Campus. The event brought together approximately 30 UTokyo students and representatives from 3 companies.

The event provided a valuable platform for companies offering long-term internships and students seeking practical work experience to connect through pitch sessions and casual networking, helping both parties understand corporate appeal and individual student interests beyond standard job listings.

### Pitch Sessions by 3 Participating Companies During the first half of the event, the three participating companies presented their business models, the experiences gained through their internships, and career advice for the students.

* **AI Career Co., Ltd.** (Representative Director: Kiyonori Kato) AI Career introduced its next-generation career matching service, which utilizes AI to assist students with self-understanding and career choices. The presenter delivered a strong message: "In an era where AI is changing the way we work, the ability to design your own career path is crucial."

* **Horizon XX Co., Ltd.** Horizon XX showcased a recruitment event for architecture students developed by their junior staff and interns. They highlighted an environment where even new hires can take on significant responsibility and bring their ideas to life within a few months of joining.

* **TENKA Co., Ltd.** TENKA introduced its diverse business portfolio, which includes AI training, recruiting support, and new business development. They presented a "business development intern" position, working directly under the CEO and executives, which drew high interest as a high-growth environment.

### Free Networking Session The second half of the event was dedicated to free networking, where students directly conversed with corporate representatives. Students asked detailed questions about specific duties, work-life balance, and internship logistics, gaining primary information not found on standard job postings.
