Creating a Smart Society Together with Our Customers as a Value Platform Partner
PresidentShuji Akiyama
NTT SmartConnect Corporation was founded in 2000 as a new member of the NTT West Group shouldering the Group’s growth strategy. Thanks to the support and patronage of our customers and partner companies, we were able to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of our establishment on March 1, 2020. I am sincerely grateful for this cooperation.
Since our founding, we have supplied various services to meet the diverse needs of our many customers, centering on the three businesses of Data Center to keep customers’ equipment, cloud to store contents, and streaming to distribute contents. Furthermore, in recent years we have started a new business to support the visualization of workstyles using AI log analysis, thereby delivering new value to customers.
I believe that our greatest strengths lie in supplying high-quality services and close support for customers’ businesses that only the NTT Group can provide, including an in-house data center with robust and industry-leading facilities, internet connectivity featuring a high-speed and high-capacity IP backbone linked directly with IX point, and all assist from consultation prior to introducing a service to 24/7 operation and monitoring afterward.
In addition, thanks to our venture spirit and energetic pursuit of cutting-edge services capitalizing on know-how and the advanced technology that we have nurtured so far, we have been highly appraised as a trustworthy partner by many customers creating new businesses.
In step with the changing times, we are continuing to broaden our business domains from the three areas of housing, cloud, and streaming to data connectivity linking customers with other customers in a smart manner.
Going forward, we will work closely with our customers as a value platform partner to create a smart society that gives value to information by storing, utilizing, and distributing data entrusted by customers.
