uSonar Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Chairman: Nami Fukutomi; President: Katsuhito Nagatake; hereinafter referred to as "the Company") announces that it has reached an agreement with Development Bank of Japan Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Seiji Jige; hereinafter referred to as "DBJ") regarding capital participation, and has completed the transaction related to said capital participation.
The Company builds and maintains one of Japan's largest corporate databases (covering 8.2 million corporate locations) and supports mid-sized and large enterprises in advancing and streamlining their database marketing and CRM operations.
By implementing our services, our client companies can perform data cleansing of customer information based on unique codes and automate the updating of constantly changing corporate information, significantly improving the efficiency of corporate data management. Furthermore, by integrating our corporate database with CRM, SFA, and MA tools, companies can create effective targeting lists and identify promising prospects they do not currently possess. We also provide a business card management service based on this database.
In recent years, as the importance of corporate data in sales and marketing activities continues to grow, our services—which enable customer data maintenance and the advancement of CRM functions based on one of Japan's largest corporate databases—serve to accelerate the digital transformation of corporate sales and marketing activities.
Through DBJ's capital participation, we anticipate an enhancement in uSonar's creditworthiness and the stabilization of our capital base.
As a financial institution 100% owned by the government, DBJ provides financial services across a wide range of industries, including real estate and infrastructure. Based on our corporate philosophy, "Design the Future with Financial Expertise: We resolve issues for our clients and society through the tireless exploration of financial frontiers, realizing sustainable development for Japan and the world," we provide integrated investment and loan services to contribute to the growth and development of the Japanese economy, actively supporting initiatives to strengthen competitiveness through the promotion of client innovation.
