Representative Director and President: Kiyoshi Shouko, stock code 151A, hereinafter referred to as Dive) will be a representative at the regional revitalization forum “Creating regional power through tourism business” to be held by Nihon Keizai Shimbun on Tuesday, May 21, 2024.

* [Event Overview] *
The super-aging and declining population that Japan faces is especially serious for rural areas.
In order to overcome these challenges that lead to regional decline, local governments have begun collaborating with businesses,
universities, and local organizations to implement ideas and initiatives to revitalize local economies and strengthen
competitiveness.
Local governments, government officials, and experts will discuss and disseminate regional revitalization in the tourism business, highlighting innovative examples that are happening on the ground. Since its establishment in 2002, Dive has been dispatching and introducing human resources to resort hotels, inns, restaurants, theme parks, leisure facilities, ski resorts, and other tourist facilities throughout Japan. Furthermore, in 2019, we launched a “Regional Revitalization Project” to resolve the imbalance in the regions visited by tourists. In this business, we plan, develop, manage, and operate accommodation facilities, including glamping facilities, not in resort areas that have already become tourist destinations, but in non-tourist areas where the local charm is not yet known.

Dive is a venture company that is developing its business to solve major issues in the tourism industry, the growth engine of the Japanese economy.
In our core business, human resources services (resort part-time jobs) specializing in tourism facilities, we are contributing to solving the “labor shortage,” which is a major issue for tourism facilities, and creating 8,306 tourism workers annually. We have a track record of dealing with over 4,600 tourist facilities in 47 prefectures nationwide, including both Japanese and foreign human resources. In addition, in our new regional revitalization project, we are developing a D2C tourism business in six non-tourist areas across the country (including depopulated areas and cities at risk of

In addition, we also offer web media specializing in glamping facilities. We are also actively developing business in the IT field, including supporting accommodation facilities to attract customers, including the operation of GLAMPICKS.
