Upcoming Webinar: The New Corporate Foundation

On August 5, 2026, from 12:00 to 12:50, we will host a thought-provoking online seminar titled Corporate Value is Determined by Context: Integrating Brand, IR, and AI in collaboration with Wills. This event will be held virtually and is free to attend, with a limit of 100 participants.

With the rise of generative AI, the landscape of content creation is rapidly evolving. Today, the competitive edge of businesses depends not only on the performance of AI but also significantly on the quality of the 'corporate context'—the underlying conditions that shape how AI interprets and generates content. In this seminar, we will explore the importance of creating a new corporate foundation that merges traditionally siloed areas—Investor Relations (IR) and branding—into a cohesive structure that AI can efficiently understand and utilize.

Key Insights from the Seminar

Our presenters include:

• - Takahashi Horiguchi, Creative Director and Department Manager at Amana, who brings profound expertise as a director solving diverse communication challenges. He is a graduate of the Master of Project Design program at the Graduate School of Project Design.
• - Hiroto Ito, an Art Director in the Corporate Communications Division at Wills. With over two decades of experience in art directing integrated reports, he focuses on enhancing corporate communication through design and IT, grounded in his research on AI and copyright.

During the seminar, participants will gain insights into:

• - The vital connection between corporate storytelling and AI implementation.
• - Techniques to transcend the mere representation of company identity, leading to compelling communication that appeals to investors.
• - A discussion on the integration of IR and brand communication, particularly in producing integrated reports and ensuring consistent brand expression.
