INFORICH INC. (Head Office: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and Group CEO: Hironobu Akiyama), the operator of the mobile battery sharing service “ChargeSPOT®,” has entered into a public relations and promotional sponsorship agreement with the Japan Association for the 2025 World Exposition.
Utilizing the digital signage installed on “ChargeSPOT” units deployed nationwide, INFORICH began promoting Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai on Tuesday, April 1, 2025. As a Silver PR Partner, INFORICH will leverage approximately 47,000 ChargeSPOT units across Japan to share the appeal and key information about the Expo with a broad audience.
■ Background of the Sponsorship
Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, themed “Designing Future Society for Our Lives,” is a major international event that aims to realize a sustainable and prosperous future by bringing together people, knowledge, and technology from around the world. With an estimated 28.2 million visitors from Japan and abroad, the Expo is expected to showcase not only cutting-edge technologies but also serve as a platform for sharing innovative models of future society that everyone can experience.
Under the mission of “Bridging Beyond Borders,” INFORICH has been expanding its mobile battery sharing service “ChargeSPOT” both domestically and internationally. Through more than 47,000 battery stands equipped with digital signage across Japan, the company has played an essential role as part of the nation’s charging infrastructure.
At Expo 2025, all on-site payments will be cashless, making smartphones a vital tool for navigating the venue. Ensuring access to charging solutions during the event will be crucial. With approximately 5,000 ChargeSPOT units already deployed within Osaka Prefecture as of the end of 2024, INFORICH will contribute to promoting the Expo throughout city streets and help create an environment where visitors can easily rent batteries and enjoy the Expo with peace of mind.
