UPWARD CEO KANEKI TO SPEAK AT THE "SOCIAL ISSUES LIST 2023 EXPLANATORY SEMINAR" HOSTED BY MITSUBISHI RESEARCH INSTITUTE, INC.

(Location: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Ryusuke Kaneki; hereinafter "UPWARD") will be speaking at the "Social Issues List 2023 Explanatory Seminar (Part 6: Disaster Prevention and Infrastructure)" hosted by Mitsubishi Research Institute on Wednesday, February 28, 2024.
Mr. Kaneki, CEO of UPWARD, will introduce "UPWARD," a mobile CRM for outside and in-home sales, as a solution for disaster prevention and infrastructure issues.

What is the "Social Issues List"?

The List of Social Issues analyzes and organizes various social issues in Japan and abroad, and identifies and explains social issues that are expected to be solved through innovation, particularly in six areas (wellness, water and food, energy and environment, mobility, disaster prevention and infrastructure, and education and human resource development).
In this publication, the gap between the vision of the future society that should be aimed for in each field and the current state is listed as "social problems." ICF considers the prioritization of social problems by focusing on areas where the potential impact of problem solving is large and where business solutions are expected to be provided. The list is not fixed, however, and is updated annually as new problems emerge, solutions are realized, and new technologies and business models emerge.
