ARAV is a startup that aims to DX and automate construction sites by providing solutions that enable advanced functions to be attached to existing construction equipment.
The construction industry is a huge growth industry with a market size of over $4T globally and $1T in Asia. Despite this, Japan is experiencing a serious labour shortage, with only 16.6% of the workforce attracted to the industry compared to the number of job vacancies, and with approximately 35% of the workforce aged 55 and over and 11% aged 29 and under, the industry is ageing more rapidly than other industries.
This problem is expected to be solved by DX of construction equipment, but it is not technically easy to develop solutions that can respond quickly to diverse construction sites and diverse construction equipment. Even if this could be achieved by specialised systems and machines, the cost would be too expensive to imprement them to the site.
Therefore, ARAV provides an unique remote control system that can be operated in real-time via the internet. The remote control system can be retrofitted to existing construction machineries, regardless of model, and can be remotely operated from any laptop PC or smartphone with an internet connection.

Automation has traditionally been out of the reach for smaller companies due to the large space requirements, technical know-how and machines limited to being single fuctional.
Closer Robots, founded in November 2021 will change this, with automation in picking, packing and palletizing accessible to smaller food processing companies.
Machines are expected to replace almost half of the workforce in the global food manufacturing space, the market potential is enormous. According to reserach firm Globe Newswire, it predicts the total addressable market in 2028 to be 130 billion USD world-wide. Closer believes the market size can be even greater through horizontal expansion including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and other consumer products.
Our service differentiates as it is compact, scalable to multi-task and simple to operate. The core competence lies in the robot control, AI image-processing and simple-to-use interface. Our business model is Robot-As-A-Service, offering monthly subscription starting from $3,000 a month. Team of talented developers allows to build key functions in-house, allowing for quick development period, scalable yet low-cost solutions for manufacturers of all sizes. Today the smartphone is more powerful than room-size IBM mainframes from the 1960’s. Closer hopes to become the smartphone of mobile robots in the manufacturing space.

Aphelia builds wireless charging stations for satellite constellations in space. Our proprietary Aphelia’s Receiver subsystem has a 77% size reduction, 93% less mass, and 93% reduction of additional launch cost compared to SpaceX Starlink’s large solar arrays. We are targeting LEO satellite constellation companies (Internet & Broadband) by providing them increased User Capacity while improving their unit economics by having additional high power at the lowest cost/kWh delivered wirelessly to their satellites without relying only on the availability of solar exposure. The commercial sector of the LEO smallsat market value which includes Satcom & information applications will grow from $10.6bil to $38.9bil in 2031, an x4 increase. The global space power supply market is estimated to reach $5.175bil in 2032 from $2.625bil in 2021.
Our Why is to consumerize space exploration. Just like how powerful smartphones nowadays have enabled Digital Economy across many regions on Earth, we aim to enhance satellite technologies so that everyday people on Earth can be part of the Space Economy across many regions in our Solar System. To date, we have received $25k USD grant from a governtment agency and are on track to raise pre-seed investment of $500k USD and another $1mil USD grant from a government ministry to bring our technology to space.

iHandal is focused on creating a better environment for future generations. We are a turnkey provider of customized and modular heat pumps that are designed around commercial and industrial heat recovery and process application. Our solution is optionally combined with a guaranteed savings or performance contracting business models where we are focused on providing electrification and decarbonization by replacing traditional HVAC equipment and boilers, with high temperature natural refrigerant heat pumps using CO2, NH3 and R290. iHandal operates in 12 countries (South East Asia, Australia, Sri Lanka, US, Canada, Sweden) and is selected as part of the inaugural cohort of companies by NYSERDA for help to decarbonise New York. iHandal is developing to become an established advanced manufacturer of heat pumps to serve niche commercial and industrial Markets, globally for retrofits.

Terra Motors Corporation will create a new mobility lifestyle in Asian region. With elaborate strategy and technological capability, we will not only introduce ecological and economical products, but also create whole new eco-system that many electric mobilities will be built upon.
We have become No.1 electric motorcycle manufacturer in Japan in three years. We have gathered human, financial, and technical resources through our business experience in Japan.
We opened our branch in Vietnam and the Philippines. There will be new branch in India as well in the near future.

With the Tesla Motors business model combined with a battery checking station, we will give the electric motorcycle a whole new image as a business and as a lifestyle as well.

Through electric motorcycle and trycycles, we not only provide new means of transportation, but also tackle the environmental problems in the Asian region. In addition, establishing factories and employing local people will create new opportunities and jobs in the country. Lastly, we will lead the electric mobility as an industry, in the Asian region. This will make Asia the new industry centre.

Hydrogen is considered as one of the most important clean energy sources for future. However, the use of hydrogen has been hindered due to its high flammability and difficulty of storage.
We propose to use inexpensive “ferrum” (= iron) powder instead of hydrogen as an energy source. Ferrum can produce hydrogen when oxidised. By utilizing this reaction, we have developed patented novel0 “Shuttle-SOFC” device that generates electrical power from ferrum. This device can store 5 to 10 times higher energy than conventional Li-ion batteries. With this technology, humongous social investment into the infrastructure for transportation and storage of hydrogen (such as long pipeline, high-pressure gas bomb or liquid hydrogen container) can be avoided. Since ferrum is one of the most common materials on the earth, unlike fossil fuels or lithium, there will be no concern for shortage.
Our business is to manufacture Shuttle-SOFC devices for electrical cars (EVs) and various energy storage systems (ESSs). The Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) expects that at least 20% of the cars sold in Japan will be electric in 2030. And the market for ESS is expected to grow to $1,750M in 2020. Our ultimate business goal is to provide stable and sustainable energy solution at global level.
