ZAKONE, a business-to-business community specializing in sleep run by NTT DX Partners and NTT East, will begin a “health management promotion support” program to support companies and local governments in their efforts to improve sleep.
Specifically, the program will provide three types of free support: “holding regular free seminars on the web,” “opening a consultation desk staffed by qualified personnel,” and “disseminating information.”
ZAKONE Secretariat’s Midori Sasaki says, “The idea is that the 152 companies participating in ZAKONE will support companies and local governments that want to start new health management. This will help expand the sleep tech economic zone.”
More and more companies and local governments are looking to improve the sleep of their employees and staff from the perspective of health management, but there are also issues such as “I don’t know where to start” and “I’m interested, but I can’t get a large budget.”
ZAKONE will support companies and local governments that face these issues in taking their first steps.
The town of Rifu in Miyagi Prefecture has decided to utilize ZAKONE’s “healthy management promotion support.” Rifu is a commuter town of Sendai City and is implementing projects such as the “Good Sleeping Town Project.”
