Thank you to Her Excellency Ambassador Viktoria Li for hosting Mark Moffat and I for a great evening at the Embassy of Sweden in Tokyo. We were joined by leaders from NEC Corporation, ABeam Consulting, and partners for an open and engaging discussion on innovation, digital transformation, and long-term Sweden–Japan collaboration. The evening was also the perfect setting to mark the next step in the IFS–NEC Corporation partnership alongside President and CEO, Takayuki Morita and Corporate Senior EVP, Toshifumi Yoshizaki. Together, we’re delivering Industrial AI for asset‑intensive industries, starting in Japan and scaling globally. With the introduction of IFS Cloud Kaname, purpose‑built for the Japanese market, organizations can adopt cloud innovation while retaining full control over data residency, governance, and operations. Many thanks to Ambassador Li and the Embassy of Sweden for the warm hospitality, thoughtful discussions, and continued support of IFS and our shared Swedish heritage. #IndustrialAI #Partnership #Japan

Some F1 partnerships are announced at launch. The best ones start before it. What’s striking about IFS’s commitment to the Cadillac Formula 1® Team isn’t just that it’s multi-year - it’s that they backed the project before the team even had an FIA licence.
