uSonar Launches LBC Corporate Database on Snowflake Marketplace
— Enabling Daily Access to One of Japan's Largest Corporate Databases Directly on Snowflake —

uSonar Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; Chairman: Nami Fukutomi; President: Katsuhito Nagatake; hereinafter "uSonar") is pleased to announce the launch of its "LBC"*1 corporate database—one of the largest in Japan—on the "Snowflake Marketplace," the AI Data Cloud platform provided by Snowflake Inc. (Location: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Ryuji Ukita; hereinafter "Snowflake").

Through this integration, companies already using Snowflake can now directly acquire high-freshness corporate data on a daily basis via the Snowflake Marketplace. This significantly reduces the operational burden of previously required tasks such as API configuration and file integration.

uSonar builds and manages LBC, one of Japan's largest corporate databases, which assigns a unique 11-digit management code to each business location across Japan. We link and centrally manage a wealth of corporate attribute information, including commercial registration data, corporate information from the web, corporate numbers, industry types, and sales scale.
We have now made the LBC corporate database available on the Snowflake Marketplace as "Corporate Data LBC." This provides companies that have already implemented or are considering Snowflake with an environment to access, analyze, and utilize LBC corporate data.
This significantly reduces the time and costs required for conventional data integration, collection, and consolidation, enabling the acceleration of corporate data utilization more rapidly and securely.

- Secure, Instant Access Without the Need for Copying or Moving Data

Through the Snowflake "Secure Data Sharing" feature, you can directly reference and analyze LBC data while keeping your own data within Snowflake.

- Advanced Segmentation Based on Corporate Attributes

By matching LBC attribute information—such as industry, sales scale, and capital affiliation—with your own customer data using APIs provided separately by uSonar, you can expect to improve the accuracy of your ICP (Ideal Customer Profile) development and targeting.

- Strengthening B2B Marketing and Promotion

By integrating with CRM/MA systems, it becomes possible to build more effective sales and marketing strategies.

* The data provided in this instance is limited to a portion of the data held by the LBC corporate database, but we also accept requests for customization based on individual needs.

Snowflake Marketplace is an AI data sharing platform provided by Snowflake. It optimizes the process of discovering, accessing, and purchasing data by providing data science, business intelligence, and analytics professionals with seamless access to live, ready-to-query data.

By leveraging Snowflake's secure data sharing technology, the high costs, cumbersome data pipelines, and the need for data integration are eliminated. This allows customers to save time and gain immediate access to the latest available data. For companies that have already implemented a Snowflake environment, a significant benefit is the substantial reduction in the man-hours required for integration.
