Zevero Inc. (hereinafter referred to as Zevero) is pleased to announce that it has passed the certification screening as a 'New Business Field Pioneer' through the production and provision of new products, etc., in the 'Field-Interactive Startup Collaboration Project' conducted by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.
With this certification, the Zevero Platform provided by Zevero will be eligible for policy-objective discretionary contracts within Tokyo for three years starting this fiscal year. This serves as a major boost for continuing and developing previous efforts with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government from this fiscal year onwards.
Recognition of collaboration results with Tokyo led to passing the certification screening.
Zevero has supported GHG emission visualization and behavioral change for decarbonization at approximately 4,000 Tokyo Metropolitan Government facilities through collaboration with the Tokyo Environment Bureau. On the official website of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, Zevero is listed as a selected startup for Environment Bureau projects, with its system for emission visualization and facility comparisons being introduced.
The passing of this certification screening is an evaluation of the results achieved through such collaborative projects. On Tokyo's project site, the certification screening is positioned after the implementation of collaboration projects, and the certification period for listed services is clearly stated. For the Zevero Platform, the certification period is announced as March 24, 2026, to March 31, 2029.
Building a stronger foundation for continued efforts with the Tokyo Environment Bureau next year.
With this certification, Zevero expects to promote projects with the Tokyo Environment Bureau planned for this fiscal year and beyond on a more solid foundation. Additionally, during the certification period, it will be easier to discuss continuous adoption and progressive initiatives, making it possible to continue collaboration without competitive bidding from this fiscal year onwards.
The decarbonization promotion efforts started with Tokyo last fiscal year are planned to continue this year, and this certification makes it easier to look toward medium-to-long-term development beyond that.
Strengthening support systems for expansion to other local governments.
This certification indicates that the efforts built through collaboration with Tokyo have also received evaluation in terms of organization. Based on the knowledge and implementation experience accumulated through the Tokyo projects, Zevero is preparing a support system that can be utilized by other local governments.
Decarbonization in the public domain is an important issue common to many municipalities. Zevero has supported the creation of systems that lead to GHG emission visualization, understanding of reduction potential, and behavioral change among stakeholders in a manner consistent with administrative realities. Moving forward, we aim to enhance our support system to assist decarbonization according to the situation of each municipality, utilizing the knowledge gained through our efforts in Tokyo.
