In regular online training and meetings, it can be difficult to gauge participants' reactions immediately, often leading to inefficient sessions. By utilizing a metaverse conference system, participants' reactions can be easily understood in real-time, facilitating smoother and deeper communication during online training and meetings, significantly increasing efficiency and accelerating decision-making and business processes. "Microsoft Mesh" (hereafter referred to as Mesh) is a very accessible service that anyone can use right away as long as they have a license for "Microsoft Teams" (hereafter referred to as Teams). However, when it comes to actual operation within the company, there are cumbersome tasks such as preparing the optimal venue (custom room) for online events and meetings, and importing company products (custom models) into the "Mesh" space. Premium Arts Co., Ltd. will act on behalf of customers to handle the operational tasks of "Mesh" through "E.M.S.P." This will reduce the burden on the IT department and further enhance the significance of metaverse meetings and training.

Premium Arts Co., Ltd. (CEO: Kazuki Yamaji, hereinafter referred to as Premium Arts) is planning and developing a smartphone app called "Shin-Okubo Go," which guides users through shopping streets using a high-function AR platform called Aspace, in collaboration with students from the Business Management Department of Obirin University located in Shin-Okubo. At the "Okubo Festival" held on October 9th this year (a public holiday), a stamp rally with prizes will be conducted as an annual event, which is very popular among festival participants. This year, in addition to the traditional paper stamp rally, we will provide a digital stamp rally as a feature of the "Shin-Okubo Go" app, allowing festival participants to enjoy the event even more. The app features the official character of the Shin-Okubo Shopping Street Promotion Association, "Angel-chan," and allows users to enjoy AR while exploring the shopping district. By participating in the digital stamp rally and visiting various spots, users can obtain valuable electronic coupons. These electronic coupons can be used at various shops along the line, making the journey even more enjoyable. We encourage you to explore the Shin-Okubo shopping district with the app in hand.
