Specific Activities of the Group Companies
Community Disaster Preparedness Education Initiatives Through Disaster Preparedness Workshops
Japan Radio Co., Ltd., continues to conduct disaster prevention education activities through disaster prevention workshops with the aim of enhancing regional disaster preparedness.
For three days, from September 1 to 3, 2025, the Solutions Division organized a disaster prevention education program titled "One-Day Disaster Prevention School" in Kushiro Town with a total of 144 participants. The program utilized 3D evacuation route maps developed through the use of the company’s proprietary technology to provide hands-on training in evacuation procedures and decision-making during disasters, thereby enhancing participants’ understanding and raising awareness of disaster prevention.
In July of the same year, Japan Radio held a disaster prevention workshop at Takashima Junior High School in Nakano City, Nagano Prefecture, as part of the Nagano SDGs Regional Disaster Prevention Project. Employees collaborated with universities and related organizations to clearly explain the risks of common disasters and the importance of taking appropriate action. These disaster prevention workshops are part of an initiative by the company to foster disaster prevention awareness among the next generation through collaboration with the local community.
Participation in the Mitaka Community Disaster Prevention Festival
Japan Radio Co., Ltd., participated in the Mitaka Minna no Bosai Festa, an event organized by the nonprofit organization Mitaka Minna no Bosai.
On the day of the event, employees from the company’s group participated and offered visitors hands-on demonstrations of a drone simulator, as well as an introduction to Nige Kit (Evacuation kit), a tool for creating personal emergency evacuation plans used in the company’s disaster preparedness classes. Children who listened to the explanations were given copies of Ki wo tsuke youkaizukan (Watch Out! Yokai Encyclopedia), a disaster preparedness card game designed to make learning about disaster preparedness fun. The game proved extremely popular with the children, and through these hands-on experiences, the event provided visitors with an opportunity to learn about disaster preparedness in an enjoyable way. This initiative helped people of all ages, from children to adults, feel a personal connection to disaster prevention and encouraged them to think for themselves, thereby contributing to the improvement of disaster prevention awareness in the local community.
Participation in the Forest Adoption Promotion Program
Nagano Japan Radio Co., Ltd., participates in the Forest Adoption Promotion Program sponsored by Nagano Prefecture. The company provides ongoing support for forest conservation activities. As part of this initiative, Nagano Japan Radio collaborates with local forest conservation groups twice a year to conduct activities that allow participants to interact with the forest, such as checking the growth of planted larch trees and experiencing mushroom spore inoculation and harvesting.
In October 2025, marking the 10th anniversary of the start of business operations, a total of 20 people, including group employees and local stakeholders, participated in the event. As part of the commemorative activities, participants also held a matcha tea ceremony demonstration. This initiative represents a sustainable environmental contribution that values the connection with the local community through forest conservation.
Sponsorship of a Picture Book Donation Project for Children's Homes
Since 2012, Nagano Japan Radio Co., Ltd., has sponsored an advertising campaign to donate picture books to children’s homes in Nagano Prefecture.
This initiative involves the purchase of picture books using sponsorship funds from companies and organizations and then donating the books to children’s homes in the prefecture. The purpose is to increase opportunities for children to read books and to help create an environment that fosters learning and sensitivity through reading. Picture books play a vital role in nurturing children’s imagination, expressive abilities, and emotional development.
Through this long-standing support, Nagano Japan Radio aims to foster the healthy growth of the next generation. The company will continue to engage in this initiative as part of its social contribution activities in the fields of education and culture.
TFT Menu Reaches 14,000 Meals Served
The employee cafeteria at Nagano Japan Radio Co., Ltd., offers "TFT (TABLE FOR TWO)" meals twice a month, and in March 2026, the cumulative number of meals served reached 14,000.
TFT is a program where 20 yen per meal is donated to provide one school lunch for a child in a developing country. Nagano Japan Radio launched this initiative in August 2023. As an activity that allows employees to participate in international aid effortlessly through daily meals, it continues with widespread understanding and cooperation. This initiative, where everyday actions support the healthy growth of children around the world, also helps foster a sense of social responsibility.
Nagano Japan Radio will continue to promote this initiative as a sustainable social contribution activity in which every employee can participate.
Dispatching Instructors to Teach Soldering Techniques
Ueda Japan Radio Co., Ltd., dispatched employees to serve as instructors for a soldering workshop at the Nagano Prefectural Institute of Technology. The workshop was held over five days between January and February 2025 with six employees participating in each session. In addition to classroom instruction, the employees provided hands-on training on soldering techniques, the foundation of electronic device manufacturing, while carefully conveying the work quality, safety awareness, and key techniques required in the field.
By having active engineers directly share the knowledge and quality-oriented mindset they have cultivated through daily work, the course provided students with a practical learning experience and an opportunity to appreciate the fascination and depth of manufacturing.
This initiative supports the development of future technical talent and is part of the efforts to fulfill its social responsibilities as a company rooted in the local community.
Support for Evacuation Drills with Local Welfare Facilities
In May 2025, GOYO ELECTRONICS CO., LTD., partnered with the Keijinkai Social Welfare Corporation to provide support for evacuation drills at nearby welfare facilities.
On the day of the event, 20 employees participated in practical training exercises, including evacuation guidance and safety support, by simulating a disaster scenario. Welfare facilities often have many elderly residents and users who require assistance, which make swift and appropriate evacuation procedures a critical priority. Therefore, there is a need to establish a disaster prevention system that involves cooperation across the entire community. Through this activity, each participant deepened their understanding and awareness of disaster prevention, and the activity served as an opportunity to reaffirm the importance of the community and businesses working together to build a safe and secure environment.
GOYO ELECTRONICS will continue its community-based disaster prevention activities and contribute to building a disaster-resilient town.
