We conduct information collection and analysis using national and international information networks. Realizing a ubiquitous society in the sense that consumers can use various ICT services to freely and seamlessly communicate with each other will require wide0range information collection and analysis from diverse viewpoints covering the communications, broadcasting, logistics, finance and ICT fields. To that end, in addition to policy and market trends in countries located in Asia, Europe, and the Americas, we multilaterally and internationally collect and store information on international bodies like the ITU, new buisness trends and services, and trends among users of national/international ICT services. Based on this kind of information, we perform deeper analysis through field surveys, interviews, and questionnaire surveys, and conduct investigation research contributing to policy making and the public good.
