March 5, 2021 Holding Result Report Meeting on Project to Promote Planning and Promotion Structure Building for Regional IoT Implementation Organizing (Project of Regional IoT Implementation Type)

The Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) adopted four organizations in fiscal 2020 and has helped them formulate concrete promotion plans on regional IoT implementation since then under MIC’s Project to Promote Planning and Promotion Structure Building for Regional IoT Implementation Organizing. This project assists local public entities that are not making progress in introducing regional IoT to solve specific regional issues due to their insufficient knowledge and expertise despite their desires.
In this connection, MIC has decided to hold a result report meeting. Organizations that participated will report their results to spread the outcome of this project and exchange opinions with other municipalities and businesses interested in the content of the plans formulated by these organizations.
