By participating in Plug and Play’s Insurtech (Insurance x IT) program, we will support our business growth and explore the possibility of collaboration with companies that sympathize with the “implementation of a decentralized society” that we are promoting. We are looking forward to meeting companies that can provide this information and provide a demonstration testing site.
The first participating event will be Orientation Day (program kickoff) on Friday, June 7th.
As this is an Insurtech program, we have the opportunity to exchange opinions with companies in the insurance industry.
In a demonstration experiment, we are collaborating with companies in the insurance industry to measure health data using TwoCa Ring to verify its usefulness as a disease prevention measure and the interlocking of services.
We will continue to participate in events during the program period and work towards expanding our business with the support of Plug and Play.
■Future outlook
Our company has obtained a funds transfer business license and is currently working on the application day by day as a digital payroll payment operator in preparation for the start of a digital payroll business. In the future, we believe that we will be able to provide a new way to receive salary, develop new services, and provide a world view that is more convenient.
Through the program, we hope to meet companies who can work with us, and we will strive to realize the services and technologies we envision, as well as the “implementation of a decentralized society.”
