I-O Data Partners with Special Olympics Nippon

This partnership was realized due to our company's empathy with SON's philosophy of "Be with all" and the concept of "Unified Sports" where all people can enjoy sports together, aligning with the philosophy of our company's 50th-anniversary project, "YOU-Action."

Our company has contributed to the development of an information society through the creation of valuable products and services, starting from customer expectations and social issues. Currently, on the occasion of our 50th anniversary, we have adopted "YOU-Action" as our concept, promoting initiatives aimed at realizing a society where everyone can act authentically, while valuing connections with society and local communities.

Through this partnership, we will leverage the digital technology and knowledge we have cultivated to support the activities of Special Olympics Nippon and contribute to the realization of an inclusive society where diverse people, regardless of disability, understand and support each other.
