WOTA is capital / business alliance with SoftBank

　WOTA Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima -ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Toshisuke Maeda, hereinafter "Wota (Wota)", which is a research and development and business of next -generation distributed water infrastructure using water cycles (Hereafter, "Softbank") We have a capital and business tie -up. With this partnership, we aim to implement the social implementation of a distributed water supply system independent of water supply in Japan by combining the WOTA's autonomous distributed water circulation system with SoftBank's communication technology and the construction of social infrastructure. As a result, SoftBank will launch the WOTA's first distributor, WOSH, "WOSH" provided by Wota, on May 10, 2021. In the past, WOTA will provide water -use opportunities such as bathing in many people with a limited amount of water, even if the water and sewage is cut off by a disaster, with the mission of "freedom of water anywhere". The "WOTA BOX", an autonomous distributed water circulation system utilizing AI, which can be done, and in July 2020, it can be installed in places without water supply, aiming to update public health on a global scale, and the public throughout the city. We have developed and implemented a social implementation of a water cycle -type portable handwasher that is effective for hygiene measures. Softbank, a partnership, is a major telecommunications carrier that has been building social infrastructure that has been a foundation for life, such as communication networks and Internet services for many years. Developing and utilizing AI and IoT technology in water treatment with the company, which has a variety of technology and abundant customer base and has implemented and operated the infrastructure of communication, and develops and utilizes AI and IoT technology in water treatment, development and business. By the WOTA, which has been developing, has a capital and business alliance, it is possible to accelerate the social implementation of the distributed water supply system. Currently, the water and sewage business in Japan has a major problem due to the frequent occurrence of water leakage accidents due to the deterioration of water pipes due to aging of water pipes, which were often laid during the high economic growth period. increase. In addition, there are many issues, such as declining population, reducing water profits due to a decline in water, and one -third of water operators in depopulated areas. In this partnership, we will take efforts to solve such issues.

The WOTA monitors the status of water quality and equipment with a unique sensor, and autonomously controls the optimal water processing process based on the data. Furthermore, by connecting WOTA products nationwide via the communication network by cloud, monitoring the water treatment status and the collected big data can be used, and continuously improves water treatment efficiency. In addition, the autonomous distributed water circulation system developed by Wota, which is developed by Wota, has been developed in islands that are physically difficult to lay water infrastructure, including a depopulated area that is difficult to maintain water infrastructure due to population decline. In mountainous areas, national parks, etc., it is effective in supply water stably without relying on water pipes. With this partnership, we will promote the introduction of autonomous distributed water circulation systems to local governments and companies nationwide, and use it all over the country. By strengthening the operation base on both sides, we will accelerate the social implementation of the distributed water supply system.

Also, in WOTA, we believe that updating public health on a global health as a new life style in the WITH Corona era is very important, so it can be installed in any place without water supply, and can be washed with clean water at any time. As a water cycling -type portable handwasher, Wosh, we have developed public health in cities, such as offices, commercial facilities, and the city. Starting with SoftBank's first distributor in Japan, WOSH will start selling "Wosh" on May 10, 2021, Wota promotes future sales alliance and implementing new public health infrastructure. We aim to build a promotion system. In the future, WOTA will continue to work to improve product services in order to realize human and nature coexistence and solve global water problems through the next -generation autonomous distributed water infrastructure using water cycling. We will further strengthen the partnership with. [Company Profile] WOTA Co., Ltd.
