Data Resources Co., Ltd. Renews Corporate Logo! — Operations to Begin on May 1, 2026

Data Resources Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Kotoha Miki; hereinafter "DRI"), a subsidiary of CROSS Business Producers Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Kotoha Miki; hereinafter "the Company"), announces that it will renew its corporate logo starting May 1, 2026.

■ Background of Logo Renewal

Since its establishment in 1995, the Company has collaborated with 200 research firms and think tanks worldwide to provide B2B market and industry data through reports, annual subscriptions, and other means. With the recent widespread adoption of AI technology, there is a growing demand for authenticity in how data itself is utilized with AI, moving beyond published materials like reports, and for correct methods of data acquisition and application. To transform into a company that provides reliable factual data, highly compatible with AI, in a format that can be more useful for your business considerations, and specifically designed for AI input, we have established a new logo as a symbol to lead us into the next 30 years.

■ New Logo Design Concept

The new logo design was created by Mr. Takumi Oguri of &D Co., and is based on a honeycomb (hexagonal) structure.

What the hexagon symbolizes:

• Data Aggregation and Order: Minimal units of data gather to form an accurate and robust information network.

• Flexible Reconfiguration: Hexagons connect and rearrange to form the words "Data Resources."

• Value Transformation: Data does not exist in isolation but interacts with each other, transforming into new value by changing shape according to use and purpose.

The typeface itself is also designed based on a hexagonal structure, with the entire logo expressing "dynamic data transformation and creation."

■ Comment from Designer Takumi Oguri (&D Co.)

"This logo is designed based on a honeycomb structure, symbolizing a robust information network where minimal units of data accumulate. This design reflects the interrelationships and transformation processes of data."

■ Future Operations

• Start Date: May 1, 2026

• Scope of Application: Our website, business cards, proposal documents, products, and all corporate tools.

• Transition Period: The period from April to June 2026 will be a transition period, during which changes will be implemented sequentially.
