In Japan, Marubun Corp., a general parts and network sector company, such as semiconductors, memory ICs, and custom ICs, has held strategic business consultations with Los Angeles Times Asia Journal Holdings to seek cooperation with technology-savvy companies in Korea.
Marubun Corp. is a traditional Japanese company and is expanding its business area by being dualized into systems such as aerospace equipment, test and measurement equipment, laser equipment and medical equipment in the existing device sector. In the meantime, they are seeking to collaborate with Korean tech-savvy companies.
The reason for this collaboration with Korean companies is that Marubun Corp.’s sales have continued to decline over the past three years, especially this year’s Coronavirus, which is expected to cause a more severe recession.
To overcome this, we are looking for Korean companies with the technology to lead the future society. Currently, Marubun Corp. is analyzing Korean companies needed in Japan and the global market based on the database of LA Times Asia Journal Holdings.
Along with the enterprising marketing strategy of Marubun Corp., which has never had a branch or office in Korea despite its strict handling of high-tech sectors, LA Times Asia Journal Holdings also plans to actively match Korean tech-savvy companies.
