Strategic Partnership between INCLUSIVE and 47partners for Regional Revitalization

INCLUSIVE, a subsidiary of INCLUSIVE Holdings, has entered into a partnership with 47partners to promote regional revitalization through innovative development and information dissemination utilizing local resources. With headquarters in the Minato ward of Tokyo, INCLUSIVE aims to lead a transformative project driven by technology and media.

Background of Collaboration

47partners, led by President Takayoshi Yokoo, has extensive experience in revitalizing regional initiatives, having managed regional development projects under MyNavi. Their mission involves the idea generation, development, and practical application of new projects that utilize local assets, addressing issues like vacant houses and public facility revitalization, encouraging settlement and migration, and promoting local tourism. Key to their operations is collaboration with younger citizens, supporting innovation from conceptualization to execution, and nurturing local talent.

On the other hand, INCLUSIVE has established a new model of regional revitalization that combines traditional practices with cutting-edge technology. Their philosophy revolves around visualizing, conveying, and automating regional values, which is critical in tackling Japan's persistent challenges, including population decline, manpower shortages, and budget constraints. The goal is to create sustainable mechanisms that benefit local governments, residents, and businesses alike.

This shared vision has fostered the partnership, aimed at constructing a vibrant regional revitalization model that enhances local brands, economic impact, and continual community engagement. The collaboration will engage in various initiatives focused on these goals.

Key Initiatives of the Partnership

As part of their cooperation, INCLUSIVE and 47partners will jointly pursue several significant action items:
1. Management and PR Support for Local Projects: Leveraging media experience to manage regional initiatives while enhancing public relations and communication efforts.
2. Product Development and Branding: Transforming hidden regional assets into products and brands recognized nationally and internationally.
3. Design of Experiential Spaces: Creating lifestyle establishments and rejuvenated public spaces centered on brand experiences to attract visitors and residents.
4. Collaboration on Local Cuisine: Utilizing the historical brand of Kyoto's longstanding restaurant, Shimogamo Saryo, to foster inter-regional cooperation and product development focused on food.
5. Digital Solutions for Local Governments: Offering support for digital initiatives that enhance operational efficiency for municipalities with limited budgets and resources.
6. Joint Project Development: Envisioning and executing community-future projects together.

A particular emphasis will be placed on Hokkaido, through the operations of the regional promotion co-creation platform 'Hokkaido Likers', with advisory efforts led by 47partners in collaboration with INCLUSIVE, targeting innovative methods of cooperation in this region.
