In response to the assumption that up to 790,000 IT personnel will be in short supply by 2030 (based on the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s IT personnel supply-demand gap observation), we are working to solve this problem by utilizing IT freelancers who work on multiple projects beyond the boundaries of the company. We have a database of IT freelancers’ technical skills, experience, and aspirations, as well as company projects. As a ” technical resource sharing platform,” we encourage the utilization of human resources without regard to employment, thereby eliminating the IT human resource shortage in our society.

・Information for IT freelancers
・Seminars for companies/IT freelancers
