Introduction to Storm Academy

In May 2025, AI Storm Inc., located in Chiyoda, Tokyo, will unveil its innovative educational platform, known as Storm Academy. This specialized AI school aims to provide practical skills that are crucial in the era of generative AI.

Addressing the Talent Shortage

Japan currently faces significant structural challenges, particularly in the field of IT. According to forecasts by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry, there will be a projected shortfall of about 790,000 IT professionals by 2030. This shortage is particularly acute in advanced fields like AI and data, which not only threatens economic competitiveness but also hampers the advancement of digital transformation in public sectors such as healthcare, education, and welfare.

With the rapid progression of generative AI and automation technologies, the demand for AI literacy has expanded beyond just 'specialists' to include every professional across various industries. Reskilling is now a vital theme; individuals of all ages, genders, and careers are required to adapt to ongoing technological changes. This pressing issue aligns closely with two Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): Goal 4, which focuses on ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education, and Goal 8, which aims to promote sustained, inclusive economic growth.

To build a sustainable society, it is essential not only to develop future talent but also to provide a learning environment that ensures no one is left behind, enabling diverse individuals to leverage technology's power.
