We are a Japanese company operating our proprietary private blockchain technology, Grid Ledger System (“GLS”), to leverage blockchain technology in various applications in a range of industries. In Japan, there have been several incidents of information leakage from the databases of various companies, and there is a demand in Japan for stronger information security. In order to provide stronger information security, various companies in Japan are conducting tests of systems utilizing blockchain technology. Among those continuing tests, as of the date of this prospectus, very few systems have been completed and are fully operating. We believe that Japan is lagging behind the international progress of blockchain system development. One reason for the slow development progress is the extremely small number of engineers in Japan who can handle blockchain technology and the high cost of learning. There is an assumption in Japan that no blockchain technology in use can process a large number of transactions at high speed while guaranteeing security. Public blockchains generally have slow transaction processing speeds and poor real-time data processing capacity, and since there is no administrator on public blockchains, users are responsible for dealing with any problems that may arise in transactions.
