SD Entertainment Opens Third Sapporo Location: "Revive Sapporo Asabu," a Next-Generation Type B Employment Support Facility for Esports, Generative AI, and Video Editing, to Open April 1, 2026.

SD Entertainment Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Sapporo, Hokkaido; President: Makoto Takahashi; TSE Standard 4650) will open the Type B employment continuation support facility "Revive Sapporo Asabu" in Kita-ku, Sapporo on April 1, 2026.

This facility, the third in Sapporo following "Miyanazawa" and "Shin-Sapporo," will support users' learning and employment through specialized programs in digital and creative fields such as esports, generative AI, and video editing.

"Revive Sapporo Asabu" aims to create an environment where users can take their first steps towards social participation and employment without undue stress, by providing support tailored to each individual's characteristics, aspirations, and physical condition.

We offer a flexible support system that makes it easy to continue, such as support for remote work and commuting from just one day a week, providing an environment where individuals can work at their own pace.

Furthermore, by combining the support knowledge cultivated through our wellness, childcare, and welfare businesses with the know-how in planning, expression, and communication developed in the entertainment field, we propose a new form of support that goes beyond the traditional framework of welfare.

● Background of Business Expansion

SD Entertainment has been developing community-based services through businesses such as fitness, childcare, and welfare.

In the welfare field as well, interest in employment support specialized in IT and creative domains is growing. At our "Miyanazawa" and "Shin-Sapporo" facilities, which are leading the way, we support users in gaining opportunities for social connection and new challenges through programs such as esports and video production.

Against this backdrop, we will open a new base in the easily accessible Asabu area to provide more people with opportunities for learning and employment support through the digital and creative fields.

Establishment of a Three-Location System in Sapporo

This facility will open as the third location in Sapporo, following "Miyanazawa" and "Shin-Sapporo." We will leverage the support know-how and operational experience gained at the preceding two locations to develop a new employment support base in the Asabu area.

Unique Initiatives Leveraging Support Know-how and Entertainment Expertise

By combining support know-how cultivated through wellness, childcare, and welfare businesses with expertise in planning, expression, and communication developed in the entertainment field, we provide an environment where users can practically learn digital and creative skills, supporting their independence and social participation.

Acquisition of Practical Digital Skills

We offer an environment where users can learn digital skills that lead to practical work, such as utilizing generative AI tools like Gemini and Midjourney, and video editing, supporting the acquisition of skills that meet social and market needs.
