### What is Campus Compass?
"Campus Compass" is an information sharing site that offers diverse choices and possibilities to students of Toyohashi University of Technology. It publishes evaluations of classes, laboratory information, and introductions to club activities, delivering real-world information. By requiring membership registration only with a university email address, it ensures that only students can view and post, thus providing highly reliable information. Additionally, it lists part-time job opportunities primarily from companies in the Higashi-Mikawa region, supporting the expansion of students' activity fields.
### Background of Business Acquisition and Partnership
The background of this business acquisition is to ensure the continued growth, expansion, and maximization of value provision for the Campus Compass business, which has primarily served Toyohashi University of Technology. By welcoming this business into the Lirem Group and entrusting its operation to the General Incorporated Association Hi-Okoshi, which promotes regional human resource development and entrepreneurship education, we believe that the synergy between both organizations can be maximized, leading to this decision. Moving forward, under the business alliance between Lirem and Hi-Okoshi, the Campus Compass business will serve as a bridge connecting regional companies and local students, aiming to deliver new opportunities to many students and further promote the expansion of the business's value.
### Comments from Representatives and Persons in Charge
We are now welcoming Mr. Iwakuma's business, a first-generation graduate of Hi-Okoshi, into the Lirem Group. Furthermore, by connecting students' scope of activities, which had been limited to within the university, to the region and from the region to society, we aim to create a society where choices previously unavailable and further intentions and experiences are realized. We intend to move forward with the perspective of how to connect people who can make their own life decisions from this easily accessible on-campus information site to the community.
