SECOM ANSHIN Innovation Challenge

SECOM ANSHIN Innovation Challenge is calling on global startups to present their ideas to make the world a safer place.

Ultimate ANSHIN Beyond Boundaries!

 

Can your startup contribute to the safety and ANSHIN (peace of mind) of society? Do you dream of making the world safer?

SECOM ANSHIN Innovation Challenge is calling on global startups to present their ideas to make this dream a reality. The main theme of this year's challenge is “Ultimate ANSHIN (Peace of Mind) Beyond Boundaries”. If your startup has a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) that is applicable to this theme, we want to hear from you!

At SECOM we have always strived to create services and systems that deliver safety and peace of mind, as well as make life more comfortable and convenient, whenever and wherever necessary, for anyone and everyone. If you share the same vision, this is your opportunity to make it happen!
