Background of Nagoya Office Establishment

The Tokai area is a hub for manufacturing industries, including automotive-related industries, and the importance of decarbonization efforts is increasing not only for finished product manufacturers but also for the surrounding supply chain companies. Beyond simply understanding CO2 emissions, there is a demand for managing Scope 1-3 emissions, calculating Carbon Footprint (CFP), and responding to disclosure and evaluation. Establishing a system to promote environmental initiatives with an eye on business partners and overseas markets has become a challenge.

Considering these regional characteristics, the Company will strengthen its service provision system for manufacturing companies and supply chain companies in the Tokai area through the Nagoya Office. By combining the CO2 emissions visualization, reduction, and reporting cloud "ASUENE" with "ASUENE SUPPLY CHAIN" for supply chain management and "NZero" for energy management, the Company will comprehensively support companies' decarbonization efforts. Furthermore, it will also support CFP calculation and disclosure, CDP responses, SSBJ standard compliance, SBT certification acquisition, and third-party assurance, providing a consistent support system from emissions understanding to disclosure, evaluation, and implementation of reduction measures.

The Company will contribute to improving the responsiveness of regional companies and strengthening their ability to meet environmental requirements from business partners and overseas markets by promoting the implementation of decarbonization management in manufacturing companies and supply chain companies in the Tokai area. Aiming to be the No. 1 global climate AI company from Japan, Asuene will support the decarbonization and sustainability management of Japan's manufacturing industry.

Strengthening Recruitment

The Nagoya Office will strengthen its sales, implementation support, and consulting functions, providing support tailored to the challenges of regional companies, primarily focusing on "ASUENE," "ASUENE SUPPLY CHAIN," and "NZero." Accordingly, recruitment of sales personnel will also be strengthened for the launch of the Nagoya Office.

Comment from Asuene's Representative

Kohei Nishiwada, Representative Director CEO, Asuene Inc.

"The Tokai area is a crucial region supporting Japan's manufacturing industry. Many companies, including those in the automotive industry, are responsible for advanced manufacturing and support domestic and international supply chains. We consider the establishment of the Nagoya Office in such a region to be highly significant.

The challenges of decarbonization and sustainability management surrounding companies are becoming more complex year by year. Consistent responses are required, not only for visualizing emissions but also for Scope 1-3 calculation, CFP calculation, disclosure, and third-party assurance. Through the Nagoya Office, our company will provide support closer to regional companies and contribute to promoting decarbonization and sustainability management in Japan's manufacturing industry."
