CEO Mami Kajita will participate in a panel discussion at the Osaka Expo special event.
◆July 10, 2025 (Thursday) 12:30-13:30
◆Panel Discussion Topic: Women Entrepreneurs Solving Social Issues
<Event Summary>
◆Main Theme: Local Economy and the Potential of Women Business Owners
◆Background and Aim : About 40% of Japan’s GDP is generated in rural areas, but the percentage is declining year by year. One of the reasons for this is the closure of businesses due to lack of successors (about 30%), and currently 50-60% of business owners are still suffering from a lack of successors. In particular, the closure of businesses that are in the black is also a major loss to the local economy, and we will consider the possibility of revitalizing the local economy through the active participation of female successors.
