A comment from our CEO, Hiroshi Hiramatsu, was featured in the article. “In Japan, both the public and private sectors are accelerating efforts toward decarbonization and digital transformation, and sustainable finance methods are necessary to succeed in these endeavors. One of the important challenges that Japan faces in the coming years is measuring progress, as it is difficult to visualize. Arc provides evidence-based assessments that help stakeholders share progress and confirm milestones. I believe that over the next few years, not only the commercial real estate industry but all industries will see a fundamental and significant change in the direction of choosing sustainability and green building certification in the Japanese market. Arc will serve as a guideline for everyone who is trying to make their business more environmentally friendly.”
