■To the 2nd floor of SoftBank Ginza

Some people went to see the robot "Pepper".

 

□SoftBank Ginza is close to the Ginza 4-chome intersection along Chuo-dori.

■We also participated in "Softbank World 2014" on July 15 and 16.

In the keynote speech, President Masayoshi Son presented the concept of "Equational productivity x working population = competitiveness of Japan's revival."

(1) Productivity can be raised by equipping information (e.g., job productivity can be improved by having all employees use smartphones, tablets, and clouds).

(2) If 30 million general-purpose production robots can be introduced, the working population can be equivalent to 100 million.

 

□President Masayoshi Son also had a dialogue with "Pepper".

■In Japan, where the working population is declining, it is necessary to change the way of thinking in order to increase competitiveness.

I think it's interesting to visit "Pepper" in the middle of the silver bra.
