Against this background, the city of Aizuwakamatsu has launched its Smart City Aizuwakamatsu program at which aims to harness ICT to foster the growth of a sustainable and revitalized city that supports fulfilled and comfortable lifestyles.

Epson established its new research laboratory after noticing significant synergies with the city’s efforts to forge a partnership among the municipality, residents, and university to promote a digital transformation.

Going forward, the company will proactively participate in initiatives such as Smart City Aizuwakamatsu and the AOI meeting as it seeks to generate new value for society.

The pursuit of open innovation is an important aspect of the company’s Epson 25 business plan.

Epson’s efforts to boost collaborations with partners aimed at finding solutions to societal issues began in May 2020 at WeWork Shibuya Scramble Square in Shibuya, Tokyo, a site at which many startups and other businesses have operations.
