The damage caused by natural disasters is becoming more severe every year, and climate change issues are posing a risk that threatens the sustainability of companies.
Initiatives toward carbon neutrality are progressing in many countries around the world. I believe that innovation through co-creation beyond the framework of companies and organizations will be a major driving force to realize this goal.
The slogan of the KDDI Green Partners Fund is "Connecting a prosperous planet to the future." Through the activities of this fund, KDDI will invest in startup companies to tackle a wide range of issues related to climate change. Also, by utilizing KDDI's various assets as growth opportunities for portfolio companies, we will work together to promote technological innovation and the spread of advanced technologies in the environmental field.
