In an exciting development, Industry One Co., Ltd., based in Chuo, Tokyo, has announced a strategic partnership with Mitsubishi HC Capital Co., Ltd., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo. This collaboration aims to harness the consulting expertise and digital knowledge of Industry One combined with the vast customer base and financial capabilities of Mitsubishi HC Capital to provide high-value services that address pressing social challenges.

Background of the Partnership

In today’s rapidly changing business environment, companies must evolve their business models to create new value in response to various social challenges. However, many businesses face hurdles in advancing digital transformation (DX) and developing new ventures due to a lack of talent and know-how. Industry One has a wealth of experience providing consulting services across diverse industries, particularly within the Mitsubishi Corporation group. This includes efforts in creating new businesses, resolving client issues, and supporting digital projects with advanced knowledge in digital and AI domains. With a vision to lead the social implementation of DX, Industry One seeks to leverage its expertise to contribute to industrial transformation and innovation across Japan.

In contrast, Mitsubishi HC Capital, as part of its mid-term management plan for the fiscal years 2023-2025, has set forth strategic goals that include evolving and layering business models. The company is committed to providing high-value services through digital and data utilization while working on new business development initiatives. This partnership will enhance Mitsubishi HC Capital's capabilities in supporting DX and new business development, ultimately contributing to resolving customer challenges.

Details of the Partnership

Under this partnership, Industry One will provide consulting services focused on DX and new business development. Mitsubishi HC Capital will leverage its strong customer base to assess the needs and challenges faced by customers embarking on DX and new business ventures. The collaboration will establish a co-creation team between the two companies, focusing on creating new value through the resolution of customer challenges through the following key initiatives:

1. Consulting Services
Industry One will offer consulting services tailored to solve the challenges faced by Mitsubishi HC Capital's customer base. By utilizing the strengths of both companies, they will support diverse needs in business development and promote DX.

2. New Business Creation
The partnership aims to strengthen capabilities for new business development by leveraging the combined knowledge and resources of both companies. This collaborative effort will enhance customer experience and generate social value.

Future Outlook

Moving forward, both companies intend to gradually strengthen their collaborative framework, ensuring that support extends beyond one-time assistance. They are committed to providing continuous support following the establishment of new ventures and fostering collaboration in ongoing business operations. The ultimate goal is to further the development of these businesses and accelerate digital transformation within Japanese society.
