Never forget to take on new challenges: Toward the future of the information society

Society is undergoing a digital transformation, and the industrial structure surrounding businesses is changing at a breakneck pace. With mounting social challenges including global warming, increasingly frequent and severe natural disasters, and labor shortages caused by a declining birthrate and aging population, we are entering an unprecedented era.

Under these circumstances, there is a need to promote digital transformation to address these challenges.

The ICC was founded more than 50 years ago to perform computational tasks using large-scale computers. Even before digital technology became widespread, we have been striving to create a society enriched by information technology.

Our spirit of constantly taking on new challenges, unbound by conventional wisdom, remains unchanged. To contribute to the informatization of the community, we will continue to listen to the voices of local residents and stand by them as an indispensable partner.
