TheNewGate Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture; CEO: Uruma Matsushita; hereinafter "the Company"), coinciding with International Women's Day on March 8, announces its initiatives and future goals for promoting women's empowerment in anticipation of a future stock market listing.
The Company has currently achieved a female management ratio of 54% (including positions equivalent to chief/kakaricho and above, as well as executive officers). We have set a goal to increase this to 70% within fiscal year 2027, further strengthening our diverse leadership structure.
### Social Background
The Japanese government has set a goal for companies listed on the TSE Prime Market to achieve a female executive ratio of 30% or higher by 2030 (Cabinet Office Gender Equality Bureau), requiring companies to implement more effective measures.
In this context, active efforts by all companies—regardless of size or listing status—to expand women's participation in decision-making layers are crucial factors in accelerating societal transformation.
### Thoughts on TheNewGate's Initiatives
Since its founding as an IT venture, the Company has believed that creating an environment where ability and motivation are fairly evaluated regardless of gender leads to sustainable corporate growth.
Based on this conviction, we have continued to fairly evaluate motivation and achievements in management appointments regardless of gender, age, or background. This has resulted in our current female management ratio of 54%.
We resonate with the national view that "the active participation of women is an essential element for realizing a society where diversity is respected and for bringing innovation to the economy and society." By setting a clear goal of 70%, we will further accelerate our efforts.
We believe that realizing an organizational structure where women play central roles in decision-making—not just meeting the standards required of listed companies, but regardless of company size—is the hallmark of a truly advanced corporate culture.
