# 【Event on May 25, 2026 (Mon)】Current Construction Company President Who Grew Sales from 200 Million to 2.7 Billion Yen Speaks on Implementing AI Management ──LIFEFUND's Takuma Shirato to Speak at Bukken King-Sponsored Seminar Bukken King-sponsored online seminar "Construction Company Management x AI" starts May 25 (Mon) at 2 PM. LIFEFUND Co., Ltd. (Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Representative Director: Takuma Shirato) announces that its representative, Takuma Shirato, will speak at the seminar "Construction Company Management x AI! Case Studies and Future Strategies from a Current President Who Grew Sales from 200 Million to 2.7 Billion Yen," hosted by Bukken King Co., Ltd. on Monday, May 25, 2026. In this seminar, LIFEFUND will explain its internally implemented "AI integration within the company" and "systematization of AI education specialized for the construction industry" as management strategies for surviving in a shrinking housing market. ## Housing Starts Decline for 3 Consecutive Years: An Era Where Simply "Building Good Houses" is Not Enough to Survive According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's "Report on Statistical Survey of Construction Starts (Fiscal Year Reiwa 7)" (published January 30, 2026), the annual number of new housing starts in 2025 was 740,667 units, a 6.5% decrease from the previous year, marking a decline for the third consecutive year. The shrinking market is a structural trend driven by a combination of population decline, rising construction costs, and a shortage of skilled workers. * Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism "Report on Statistical Survey of Construction Starts (Fiscal Year Reiwa 7)" press release (published January 30, 2026) https://www.mlit.go.jp/report/press/joho04_hh_001350.html Amidst these changes, it has become difficult for construction companies to differentiate themselves solely on "product strength." The current situation demands two concurrent strategies: ① Management DX (AI utilization) to fundamentally enhance productivity, and ② Redesigning customer acquisition strategies to secure order opportunities upstream. ## Why Takuma Shirato of LIFEFUND is Speaking Mr. Takuma Shirato, Representative Director of LIFEFUND Co., Ltd.
