Signed an Official Partner Agreement with Professional Football Club KATALLER TOYAMA “Providing support for the sixth consecutive year in the 2024 season”

KOKUSAI ELECTRIC CORPORATION (President and CEO: Fumiyuki Kanai, Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan) is pleased to announce the renewal of the official partner agreement with KATALLER TOYAMA K.K. (President: Shigeo Hidaritomo, Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture), which is the operator of KATALLER TOYAMA, a professional football club of the Japan Professional Football League (J-League). We will provide support for this club for the sixth consecutive year since the 2019 season.

KOKUSAI ELECTRIC started operation of the TOYAMA TECHNOLOGY & MANUFACTURING CENTER in the Yatsuo district, Toyama City, in 1989. Since then, we have produced high-quality, high-performance and high-productivity semiconductor manufacturing equipment for shipment to leading semiconductor device manufacturers around the world. As a company based in the same prefecture, we feel sympathy for KATALLER TOYAMA’s management policy of “Making Toyama a thriving city.” To contribute to sustainable development and local revitalization of Toyama Prefecture through sports, we have been supporting the football club as an official partner since the 2019 season. This season as well as last season, we will see our company name placed on a pitch advertising board somewhere around one of the corner poles. We are also a co-sponsor of the ONE TOYAMA project, which KATALLER TOYAMA started two years ago.

Under the corporate slogan “Technology & Tai-wa for Tomorrow,” we will pursue economic, environmental, and social values from both business and ESG (resolving environmental and social issues and strengthening governance) aspects, with the aim of contributing to the achievement of SDGs and realizing a sustainable society and our group’s sustainable development.
