1. Background and Objectives of Participation

Currently, as the regional collaboration and expansion (regional transition) of club activities are rapidly being promoted in school settings nationwide, major challenges include securing receiving regional clubs, a shortage of instructors, ensuring safety during times when instructors cannot supervise, and the operational burden on local governments and facility managers for facility and key management associated with school opening.

To address these challenges, our company is developing "Machisupo," a facility management DX solution that balances labor saving for school opening with safety in the regional expansion of club activities. We have decided to participate by endorsing the purpose and objectives of the "Bukatsu Support Consortium," where various companies and organizations collaborate to support regional club activities, and by leveraging our ICT technology and sports DX expertise to contribute to the local community.
