Delay in Opening FinGATE SAPPORO

Heiwa Real Estate Co., Ltd., based in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, has announced the postponement of the opening of FinGATE SAPPORO, originally scheduled for October 20, 2023. This marks the first FinGATE location in Sapporo and was anticipated to be a significant development in the region's financial landscape. The decision to delay was made following discussions with the facility management, but the company has assured that the fundamental plans for the center remain unchanged.

As soon as a new opening date and location details are confirmed, they will be communicated to the public. Heiwa Real Estate extends its apologies to anyone affected by this delay while committing to continued efforts towards establishing FinGATE SAPPORO in the near future.

In conjunction with this change, a financial seminar titled "How Can GX Transform Hokkaido and Sapporo? - The Impact of Investment on Regional Economies" is still scheduled to take place on October 22, 2023. The venue for this event has been updated to the Sapporo Grand Hotel, where participants can engage in valuable discussions on the development of sustainable investment in the region. This seminar will focus on potential social impacts of investments related to climate change and energy transitions, highlighting the need for strategic investments in Hokkaido, which is projected to be a major player in GX-related investments worth about 40 trillion yen.
