Benjamin Corporation Becomes First in Japan to Acquire AWS Generative AI Competency

Introduction

In a remarkable achievement, Benjamin Corporation, headquartered in Chuo, Tokyo, has become the first in Japan to obtain the prestigious AWS Generative AI Competency. As of August 28, 2025, Benjamin stands out as only the fourth company in Japan to earn this esteemed recognition from Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Significance of the Competency

This competency is a testament to Benjamin’s expertise and history in the realm of generative AI, showcasing that it adheres to AWS’s rigorous standards for technology and implementation. In today’s rapidly evolving tech environment, where many businesses are exploring the benefits of generative AI, having a partner with demonstrated high-level technical skills is essential for effective integration.

Background

As businesses increasingly adopt generative AI, it’s clear that specialized knowledge and experience are necessary to navigate the complexities involved. Benjamin has leveraged its extensive background as an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner and expertise in generative AI to assist clients in their digital transformations (DX). The achievement of the AWS Generative AI Competency solidifies the company’s status as a trusted advisor in this field.

What is the AWS Generative AI Competency?

The AWS Generative AI Competency is designed to acknowledge AWS partners who have exceptional technical skills and a proven track record in implementing generative AI solutions, application development, and operational maintenance on AWS infrastructure. To obtain this competency, partners must successfully pass stringent technical audits and exhibit remarkable implementation capabilities.

Value Proposition for Customers

Reliable Solutions Delivery

Benjamin is committed to providing high-quality and secure generative AI infrastructure and applications in line with AWS best practices. These include internal knowledge searches, automated document generation, advanced chatbots, and image analysis—all delivered in a timely manner.

Support Through Practical Implementation

Many AI projects stagnate at the proof of concept (PoC) stage, often referred to as the "PoC wall." Benjamin guides customers beyond this barrier, ensuring their AI initiatives translate into tangible business value. This AWS-certified competency is evidence of Benjamin’s capability to support clients from strategy development through to operational execution.

Rapid Value Creation

Benjamin focuses not only on technical implementation but also on achieving significant business outcomes for clients—such as enhanced employee productivity, substantial cost reduction, and improved customer experiences.
