Kokopelli Inc. (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director CEO: Shigeru Kondo, hereinafter "Kokopelli") is pleased to announce that the total number of financial institutions that have adopted services across the entire Kokopelli Group has exceeded 100 as of May 2026. This achievement is the result of working together with financial institutions nationwide through various services, including the "Big Advance" management support platform for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and represents a significant milestone indicating a new expansion of SME support.

SME Support and Financial DX promoted in cooperation with financial institutions

Since its establishment, Kokopelli has consistently introduced services specialized in "SME support." In April 2018, we released Big Advance, and centered on regional revitalization x technology, we have been expanding support for SMEs nationwide in cooperation with financial institutions.

Furthermore, with the aim of improving operational efficiency and strengthening support systems for regional financial institutions, we have focused on DX support for financial institutions. In addition, we have deepened our collaboration with financial institutions while expanding our service areas to include overseas expansion support.

Through the accumulation of these efforts, the number of adopting financial institutions has now exceeded 100.

What exceeding 100 institutions means

This achievement of exceeding 100 institutions is not merely the attainment of a numerical target; it signifies the progress of our SME support initiatives, which Kokopelli and financial institutions have built together, spreading across regions and throughout the nation. By supporting SMEs, which account for 99.7% of all companies in Japan, in collaboration with regional financial institutions, we believe the importance of these efforts, which contribute to the sustainable development of the entire Japanese economy, is growing even further.

Future outlook

We will continue to deepen our collaboration with financial institutions and work towards supporting the sustainable growth of SMEs through the expansion of domestic and international business matching and the advancement of management support utilizing digital technology.

With this milestone of 100 institutions as a waypoint, we aim to continue being a presence that backs the challenges of even more companies.
