Promoting smart cities as a model for regional revitalization in Japan
Smart City Promotion Division
General Manager
Kenichi Yamagishi
The world faces a host of problems today, including rapid
urbanization and energy woes resulting from populations being
concentrated in cities, as well as the need to cope with
environmental concerns and the global economic recession.
The same can be said for Japan; as it continues to grapple with
longstanding issues, pressure has mounted around building secure,
safe, and sustainable communities since the Great East Japan Earth-
quake of March 11, 2011.
Putting renewable energy to use is an issue in every region. Utiliz-
ing ICT, Fujitsu will support the smart conversion of social infrastruc-
ture, especially in the field of energy. In tandem, Fujitsu will leverage
its own Field Innovation approach to think through and solve local
issues, and tackle the question of revitalization together with local
communities. In doing so, we aim to create a model whereby value is
circulated throughout society for these communities to bring about
sustainable “smart cities.”
Furthermore, by applying its rich experience of providing business
solutions—a Fujitsu forte—to address the needs of local communities,
Fujitsu will create a standard “regional revitalization model” for the
development of Fujitsu-original smart cities across Japan. Our ulti-
mate goal is to roll out smart cities worldwide, contributing to the
creation of societies where people can live in peace of mind.
