■ Background
In the Chubu region, where Japan's leading manufacturing industries are concentrated and the strengthening of the entire supply chain is demanded, improving productivity through IT utilization, as well as global standard security measures, have become urgent management issues. Meanwhile, opportunities to experience the latest IT trends and practical know-how are still concentrated in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Therefore, Softcreate believes it is important to provide a "real venue" in Nagoya where local company personnel involved in promoting IT utilization, who are busy with daily operations, can directly interact with experts to address their challenges. Following the success of the previous event in Nagoya, which attracted approximately 100 attendees and was well-received, we have decided to hold the event again this year, offering the latest information and solutions that should be grasped now.
