We passed the pitch screening for the 15th 1stRound program.

NaviNichi, Inc. passed the pitch screening held on June 12–13, 2026 and advanced to the final round of the 15th 1stRound — a startup growth-support program co-hosted by domestic universities and research institutions together with the University of Tokyo Innovation Platform Co., Ltd. (UTokyo IPC).

The screening assessed business viability and feasibility, among other criteria. We presented our vision of connecting foreign residents with the schools, companies, and government that host them through AI, and our work on the social challenges of foreign-national inclusion.

We will continue developing AI infrastructure that supports both foreign residents and the host side, working to create an environment where anyone can choose their next step in Japan with confidence.
