Pacific Consultants Sponsors "Doboku Model Grand Prix 2026 ~National Student Presentation Battle~"

Pacific Consultants Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and Executive Officer: Osamu Omoto) will sponsor the "Doboku Model Grand Prix 2026 ~National Student Presentation Battle~" organized by Nikkei BP Nikkei Construction.

The "Doboku Model Grand Prix" is a presentation contest where students utilize their self-made civil engineering models to explain the mechanisms of civil engineering structures, their social roles, and the importance of disaster prevention and resilience in an easy-to-understand manner to the general public. A key feature of this contest is its emphasis not only on the completeness of the models but also on the perspective of "how to convey the message."

The first Doboku Model Grand Prix 2025, held last year, received the Semi-Excellent Department Award (Event Category) at the "Civil Engineering Public Relations Award 2025" hosted by the Japan Society of Civil Engineers. Nikkei BP Website: https://www.nikkeibp.co.jp/atcl/newsrelease/corp/20260317/

Our company has long contributed to creating safe and secure communities through disaster prevention and mitigation measures and support for recovery and reconstruction from large-scale disasters, primarily in the social infrastructure field. We agree with the purpose of this competition, which encourages the next generation to proactively consider the significance and appeal of civil engineering and the importance of disaster prevention and resilience, and to share these with society. We have been sponsoring the event since its first iteration. Through this sponsorship, we aim to contribute to the development of next-generation talent and the promotion of the civil engineering field's appeal, while also helping to realize a sustainable and resilient society.
