We support April Dream, which aims to make April 1st a day for sharing dreams. This press release is the dream of School Company Inc. (Nara Shukyaku Ojisan).
School Company Inc. (CEO: Hiroyasu Ohno), located in Nara City, is sharing its dream to "create a system where jobs are continuously born in Nara."
Based in Nara, our company provides web production and web marketing support. We aim to create a state where work circulates within Nara by connecting local business operators, and further, to attract projects from all over the country.
## The Current Situation of "Working in Osaka, Sleeping in Nara"
Nara Prefecture has a high rate of out-of-prefecture employment, with a particularly large number of people commuting to Osaka for work and school.
In fact, it is said that **over 100,000 people** commute from Nara Prefecture to Osaka Prefecture, creating a situation where many people work outside of Nara and their consumption also flows outward.
As a result, a structure has persisted where it is difficult for jobs and value to be created within Nara.
Against this backdrop, Nara is sometimes referred to as a place where people **"work in Osaka, play in Osaka, and sleep in Nara."**
We want to change this flow.
## Our Dream
Our dream is **to create a city where work circulates within Nara and, furthermore, attracts jobs from all over the country.**
Accepting Nara's work in Nara and completing it in Nara.
And beyond that, creating a situation where one can acquire national projects while being in Nara.
Realizing both of these is the goal of this initiative.
