Speakers at Nikkei Industry Forum in Tokyo on Monday, September 2 and Osaka on Wednesday, September 11

Mr. Kaneki, President and CEO, will be speaking at this forum, which will be held in Tokyo and Osaka.
While inside sales is becoming increasingly digitalized, field sales (outside sales) has not yet been systematized, standardized, digitized, or technologized. It can be said that non-reproducible and human-centric sales activities are still continuing. UPWARD provides a field sales activity management service that seamlessly integrates CRM and location information, displaying various customer information and customer visit activities on a map in real time, and enabling easy on-site recording of activities using location information and voice. The presentation will include specific examples of how this service dramatically improves sales productivity and transforms the way field salespeople and managers work.
