We are pleased to announce that Takanawa global co-benefits Fund (managed by Global Brain Corporation) has invested in Smart Shuzen Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Smart Shuzen).

Smart Shuzen offers a comprehensive repair support service for large-scale repair work on apartment buildings and other properties, from obtaining and comparing estimates to introducing construction companies and providing support after the work is complete. With the company's unique estimate database and support from professional consultants, the service has been praised for helping to eliminate information gaps and improve transparency regarding repair work, and helping to alleviate anxiety and distrust among management associations and residents.

The company's mission is to "contribute to a better life by realizing fair transactions in building renovation," and it promotes its business by providing transparency and fairness in repair work estimates and construction processes.

Currently, large-scale repair work on apartment buildings and other buildings in Japan faces the challenge of information asymmetry regarding the appropriateness of the work content and costs, leading to persistent anxiety among management associations and residents. Smart Shuzen increases transparency in the repair process by providing data-driven assessments using a proprietary estimate database, support for obtaining and comparing estimates from multiple construction companies, and construction support from expert consultants, thereby contributing to the maintenance and improvement of a safe and secure environment for management associations and residents. This makes it possible to create value such as "optimizing work content and costs" and "preventing fraud and collusion," and the company's services have the potential to grow as a new standard in the repair work field.

Our fund strongly sympathizes with Smart Shuzen's vision of "realizing a fair, transparent, and secure repair market," and has decided to make this investment.

Going forward, the Takanawa global co-benefits Fund will continue to work with its urban development partners to support the growth of various startups, thereby working to realize "global co-benefits" for a more fulfilling life for the next 100 years.
