Background of uSonar's Integration with Nikkei WHO'S WHO

DX promotion and data-driven strategies are advancing in corporate management. We recognize this as a response to the declining working-age population, making operational efficiency and productivity improvement critical challenges for companies.
uSonar continues to evolve to provide valuable data that helps solve these challenges.
In this instance, we received numerous requests from mSonar user companies, such as "We want to know more extensive information about business professionals regardless of whether we have exchanged business cards" and "It would be useful to know career profile information beyond what is on a business card." Consequently, both companies have been exploring the realization of this personnel information service.
