At the award ceremony, Atsushi Sora, Chief Executive Officer at JRCS, said, “Ships, which carry more than 95% of the world’s logistics, are unable to receive adequate support due to the restricted communication environment once they set sail.

By combining our over 70 years of onboard plant and hardware know-how with digital technology, we are fulfilling the mission to support maritime transportation and bring smiles to everyone in the world.
