Fibergate Inc. (TSE Standard/SSE: 9450; Head Office: Sapporo, Hokkaido; Representative Director and President: Masanori Inomata; hereinafter 'Fibergate') and HOMETACT Inc. (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and Co-CEO: Taichi Matsumoto; Co-COO: Yoshihiro Tachibana; hereinafter 'HOMETACT'), a Mitsubishi Estate Group company, are pleased to announce the signing of a business alliance agreement regarding the sales of 'HOMETACT,' a comprehensive smart home service provided by HOMETACT.
### Background of the Business Alliance
Fibergate operates under the slogan 'Lead The Telecomenergy – Creating Future Value through Communication and Energy,' providing communication services for residential complexes (Home Use Business), business use services for tourist facilities and commercial areas (Business Use Business), and renewable energy services combining solar power and storage batteries.
HOMETACT, which spun off from Mitsubishi Estate and began operations in April 2026, provides a comprehensive smart home service that allows users to manage IoT devices from multiple manufacturers using a dedicated app or smart speakers. The service has received high acclaim, with a 94% tenant satisfaction rate and approximately 88% of users expressing an intent to continue using it when moving. It is increasingly valued as a key factor in property selection, supporting convenience, safety, and comfort in daily life.
This alliance aims to combine Fibergate's strong communication infrastructure supply capabilities with HOMETACT's advanced platform to achieve the following:
1. Strengthening Approach to Target Markets
Utilizing Fibergate's nationwide sales network and customer base to rapidly disseminate HOMETACT's high-quality smart home solutions to the national rental market.
2. Improving Tenant Convenience and Maximizing Property Asset Value
By providing connectivity and smart home services in a one-stop shop, the alliance will offer tenants an advanced and comfortable lifestyle while providing real estate owners and operators with clear differentiation from competitors and long-term asset value improvement.
### Details of the Alliance and Future Outlook
Through this partnership, both companies will promote market development through the following activities:
1. Expansion of Market Share through Sales Collaboration
Using Fibergate's national sales network, the companies will propose HOMETACT to rental management companies and real estate owners, including those in regional cities, as a solution to maximize property value.
2. Provision of One-Stop Solutions through 'Connectivity x Smart Home'
The alliance will package Fibergate's mainstay 'Free Internet Service for Tenants' with 'HOMETACT.' This creates a system that supports the smart-home-ification of properties from design to maintenance, providing tenants with a new living experience where daily tasks like unlocking doors, turning on lights, and operating air conditioners are completed smartly.
