SAMURAI Corporation's Commitment to Digital Literacy

In a significant step towards enhancing the digital literacy of young generations, SAMURAI Corporation, headquartered in Minato-ku, Tokyo, has announced its membership in the Digital Human Resource Collaborative Alliance as of October 2025. The initiative aims to foster IT skills among children and young adults through strategic partnerships with educational institutions, local governments, and various businesses.

Background of the Membership

The ongoing digital transformation (DX) has drastically altered industries and workstyles, underscoring the urgent need to cultivate a workforce of digitally adept individuals for the future. However, many educational environments fall short in offering systematic and practical learning opportunities in key areas such as programming, design, and data science.

Recognizing this gap, SAMURAI has chosen to leverage its educational services to provide broader access to IT skill development for students. The company's goal is to drive educational innovation in the face of rapidly evolving digital demands.

Insights from the CEO

Hamada Godatsu, CEO of SAMURAI, expressed enthusiasm about joining the Digital Human Resource Collaborative Alliance. He emphasized, “We at SAMURAI are committed to providing high-quality IT education to everyone, regardless of age and background. Our mission is to create a society where individuals can expand their potential through quality education. By joining this alliance, we aim to offer children opportunities to engage with the joys and potential of IT, thereby enhancing Japan’s competitiveness in the digital landscape.”

SAMURAI Youth School

Building on an impressive track record of training over 45,000 individuals through its SAMURAI Engineer programming school, the company's educational programs are designed to solve the issue of inadequate IT instruction in schools and learning centers. SAMURAI’s offerings encompass curriculum design, teacher dispatch, resource provision, and career support, ensuring a comprehensive approach to reduce the burden on educational personnel while promoting proactive learning among students.

Moreover, SAMURAI extends its services beyond traditional teaching by advocating for business efficiency through DX (School Administration DX), offering support tailored for educators and also assisting with university entrance exam preparations. The educational support model promotes utilizing the results of programming studies to help students cultivate essential life skills through inquiry-based learning.
