Alsaga Partners Sponsors U☆PoC at UEC
Alsaga Partners, a leading company dedicated to promoting digital transformation (DX), has announced its sponsorship of the U☆PoC (University Idea Validation Contest). Organized by the University of Electro-Communications (UEC), this contest aims to provide a platform for students to validate and present their innovative ideas. The event is set to commence on August 29, 2025, and seeks to encourage the next generation's creativity and problem-solving skills.
Overview of U☆PoC
The U☆PoC contest is designed to inspire students to develop technology and service ideas that address existing social issues and contribute to a more prosperous future. Throughout this rigorous competition, teams with exceptional projects will receive cash prizes as well as mentorship from a diverse range of experts. Over approximately six months, students will refine their ideas, navigate prototype evaluations, and culminate in a final presentation to showcase their results.
In addition to UEC faculty, industry professionals and entrepreneurs will serve as judges and mentors. This collaboration ensures students gain valuable insights and feedback, enhancing the quality of their projects and establishing important connections with the real-world economy.

The Motivation Behind Sponsorship
At Alsaga Partners, our mission extends beyond mere system development to encompass the cultivation of future talent in the IT industry. Given the growing shortage of qualified IT professionals, we recognize the importance of providing practical learning experiences and challenges that empower young people to develop the necessary skills and attitudes for success.
U☆PoC aligns perfectly with our vision of nurturing the next generation of innovators who will actively engage in solving societal challenges. The process of creating value—through teamwork, discussion, and addressing diverse perspectives—is intrinsic to our belief in “creating people.”
We hope that participants in this contest will take significant steps toward their future, and we are committed to fully supporting their endeavors as they potentially become catalysts for Japan’s progress.
