Techvan's Commitment to Shizuoka: Strengthening IT Talent Acquisition
Techvan Corporation, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, under the leadership of President Mutsuo Takamatsu, recently conducted a courtesy visit to the Shizuoka City Hall on November 2025. This visit marks a significant step for the company as it aims to solidify its presence and enhance IT talent acquisition in the region, paving the way for further business expansion in the Tokai area.
Overview of Shizuoka Office Activities and Recruitment Achievements
In June 2025, Techvan opened its Shizuoka office in Suruga Ward, capitalizing on the local government’s enterprise location promotion grant. The company offers a broad range of IT services, including system development, IT infrastructure construction, security, and AI implementation. With strong support from Shizuoka City, Techvan has successfully forged partnerships with local universities and vocational schools to strengthen its recruitment efforts. Within just half a year of launching, the company has successfully recruited five new graduates who are set to begin their roles in April 2026. This achievement showcases Techvan's commitment to cultivating IT talent rooted in the local community, thanks to collaborative efforts with educational institutions and local authorities.
Future Outlook Focused on Regional Collaboration
During the courtesy visit, discussions included updates on recruitment successes and the operational status of the Shizuoka branch, as well as the future direction of regional collaboration. Techvan aims to prioritize the following initiatives:
- - Strengthening Recruitment in the Tokai Region: Techvan plans to bolster its recruitment efforts, aspiring to grow its workforce to 200 employees over the next three years.
- - Local Recruitment Focus: The company aims for 10-15% of this growth to be focused on local recruitment in Shizuoka, emphasizing the importance of nurturing talent within the vicinity.
- - Support for Regional Companies: Leveraging its expertise in IT, AI, and security, Techvan is committed to contributing to the digital transformation (DX) of local businesses and supporting their talent development needs.
The company’s collaboration with Shizuoka City is expanding beyond mere recruitment support. They are working on constructing a cyclic model for IT talent between industry, academia, and government, ensuring a sustainable pipeline of skilled professionals that meets local demands.
Techvan aspires to be a business that grows alongside its community, encouraging co-creation with local governments, educational institutions, and enterprises. By establishing robust partnerships and laying down the groundwork for comprehensive talent development, Techvan aims to enhance the IT industry landscape within Shizuoka and the broader Tokai region.
