Meta Heroes Inc. (Headquarters: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; Representative Director: Kazutoshi Matsuishi; hereinafter referred to as "the Company") will host a free "Finance x AI Video Creation Experience Seminar" for elementary and junior high school students and their guardians at "Hero Egg," a DX education facility within Namba Parks, on Sunday, April 26, 2026, inviting a certified instructor from the Japan Financial Support Organization.

This event, themed "Learning about Future Money and Creativity!", is an unprecedented experiential seminar that combines "financial education" to learn about the mechanisms of money with "AI video production" utilizing the latest technology. On the day of the event, in addition to a lecture on the basic knowledge of "saving, increasing, and protecting money" by Mr. Shintaro Tamaki, a certified instructor from the Japan Financial Support Organization, a simple video creation workshop using AI technology provided by the Company will be conducted. This program allows parents and children to enjoyably acquire both "money literacy" and "AI utilization skills," which are essential for the coming era, at once.

Social Background

Currently, with the revision of the curriculum guidelines, financial education is being introduced in schools, making it an urgent task to improve money literacy among young people. Meanwhile, the evolution of technology, including generative AI, is remarkable, and there is a demand to shift from being "consumers" to "creators of value" by mastering these technologies. However, opportunities to learn these systematically at home are still few, and the integration of the latest technology and literacy education remains a challenge.

The Company believes that cutting-edge technology should be accessible to everyone. In this seminar, instead of simply cramming knowledge, we aim to simultaneously foster learning retention and creativity by outputting the learned "financial knowledge" in the form of "AI videos." By using AI as a powerful tool, we provide children with the opportunity to enjoyably grasp seemingly difficult topics such as "investment basics" and "household finances/life plans" as their own.

Background of the Collaboration Event

The Company has been working on education and regional revitalization using metaverse and AI, advocating "Society 5.0 x SDGs x HERO." At the DX education facility "Hero Egg," opened in August 2024, we have provided free learning opportunities to many children as a place where anyone can access cutting-edge technology regardless of economic constraints.

This collaboration with the Japan Financial Support Organization was realized from a strong desire to foster the next generation of "heroes" from multiple perspectives by integrating the Company's strengths in "AI and digital technology" with "financial wisdom" essential for navigating society.

Through this seminar, we hope to provide children with an opportunity to be confident that the future is not "something to be anxious about" but "something they can create themselves." Moving forward, Meta Heroes and Hero Egg will continue to collaborate with local governments and specialized organizations to solve social issues through the power of technology and strive to create a future where children can dream.
