Vertex Partners Showcases AI Innovations at Eight EXPO 2026
On February 18th and 19th, Vertex Partners, a Tokyo-based company, will take part in the highly anticipated
Eight EXPO 2026 at the Tokyo Big Sight, occupying booth
AI-PAX290. The expo promises an insightful journey into the application of cutting-edge AI in various business processes, making it an essential event for professionals interested in enhancing operational efficiency through technology.
The theme of this expo revolves around the practical implications of AI, presenting numerous opportunities for attendees to discover actionable insights and experiences in leveraging artificial intelligence. Vertex Partners plans to exhibit three of its most innovative AI services aimed at refining the decision-making processes across different domains including research and development, business planning, and project promotion. These services focus on transforming traditionally subjective tasks into standardized, replicable processes that can be easily adopted by teams and organizations.
Exhibition Overview of Services
1. R&D-Focused AI
This service revolutionizes the approach to research and development by implementing the inventive problem-solving method known as
TRIZ into AI systems. It assists in everything from generating research themes to evaluating them comprehensively. Key components of this service involve enhancing keyword exploration, technical and market analysis, and the brainstorming and evaluation of research themes. By shifting the reliance away from personal intuition and experience, it establishes a reliable decision-making framework for R&D teams.
Challenges Addressed:
- - Difficulty in improving the quality of research and development
- - Continuous dependency on flash of inspiration
- - Time-consuming investigation and material creation
- - Insufficient exploration from the viewpoint of customers and markets
2. Consulting AI
Acknowledging the issues stemming from dependence on external consultants, the Consulting AI is designed to automate various tasks traditionally performed by consultants, such as research, organizing issues, hypothesis crafting, and verification of decision-making materials. This AI service aims to standardize project methodologies, allowing even less-experienced or non-specialist personnel to execute high-quality decisions and discussions effectively.
Challenges Addressed:
- - Incurred high costs from external consulting firms
- - Ongoing reliance on the experience and skills of assigned staff
- - Inconsistency in the quality and granularity of actions taken
3. Insight Agent
Moving from simply viewing dashboards to receiving proactive insights, the
Insight Agent continuously monitors data around the clock. It can detect anomalies and changes, autonomously conducting cause analysis, organizing insights, and creating reports, ensuring that organizations are promptly notified of necessary actions. This AI solution facilitates smoother data utilization in hectic environments by eliminating the need to manually check dashboards.
Challenges Addressed:
- - Decisions heavily relying on personal experience and intuition
- - Delayed realization of anomalies and changes
- - Insufficient engagement with available data

Visitors to Vertex Partners' booth can expect to experience live demonstrations of their AI services, featuring typical scenarios that illustrate how AI can facilitate research, ideation, and decision-making in practice. This hands-on experience will help potential clients visualize the extent to which AI can address their organizational challenges, even when they are still defining them.
