Building on our main product, &#8220;desknet\u2019s NEO&#8221; groupware platform, we have expanded our product line to include &#8220;ChatLuck&#8221; business chat tool and &#8220;AppSuite&#8221; a no-code business application development platform. Continual version upgrades on each product have contributed to sustained sales growth by earning a strong reputation for each of our products. In 2019, we made Pro-SPIRE Inc., whose main business is system integration, a subsidiary, growing our customer base and lines of business as a result. Furthermore, in 2023 we implemented ChatGPT generative AI integration for desknet\u2019s NEO and ChatLuck, introducing an environment that enables our users to employ generative AI with security and peace of mind.In 2025, we added support for integrating AI assistants created with \u201cneoAI Chat for desknet\u2019s\u201d with groupware and business chat platforms. We aim to continue increasing sales and dividends through the development of innovative products and steady growth in our user base and business performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 24px\"><strong>Entering global markets for medium- to long-term growth<\/strong><\/span><br>As one priority measure to realize further growth, we are advancing technological innovation and sales-channel growth both in Japan and overseas. In Japan, after opening the Osaka and Nagoya branches in 2017 and 2019, respectively, we opened the Fukuoka Branch in 2022. We will continue to grow our sales network with the aim of achieving our aggressive target of 10 million users, so that all office workers can enjoy the benefits of ICT tools. We also are advancing into international markets in light of expectations for shrinking numbers of business users in Japan as the nation\u2019s population shrinks. As part of these efforts, in 2019 we established a consolidated subsidiary in the United States, to carry out marketing, alliance, and product-development initiatives. Furthermore, to expand sales of our groupware products in Southeast Asian markets, which have a high degree of affinity with Japanese business practices, we established consolidated subsidiaries in Malaysia in 2019, Thailand in 2021, and the Philippines in 2024. Under our \u201cOne Team\u201d structure, in which all our locations work together as one team, we are building a foundation for sustained growth. We are confident that our products, reflecting our continuous pursuit of ease of use in line with Japanese business practices, can benefit business users in Southeast Asia as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 24px\">Making business ICT tools a new infrastructure for working people<\/span><br><\/strong>The demand for tools that enable flexible work arrangements is growing.
