On February 4-5, 2026, Ekotek was honored to participate as an official sponsor of ICT Japan Day 2026, an important annual event organized by VINASA to promote technology collaboration between Vietnamese and Japanese enterprises. The two-day program brought together technology leaders, government representatives, and innovative companies with a shared goal: strengthening cross-border partnerships and accelerating digital transformation.
Our participation reflected Ekotek’s long-term commitment to supporting Japanese businesses with practical, high-impact DX and AI solutions while building deeper partnerships between the two markets.
Day 1 Highlights – Keynote from Ekotek Japan CEO
During the main conference session, Nikita Ngan Nguyen, CEO of Ekotek Japan, delivered a presentation addressing the current business landscape for Japanese enterprises and how technology partners in Vietnam can help overcome pressing challenges.
Key Challenges Facing Japanese Enterprises Today
Japanese companies across industries are under growing pressure to modernize while maintaining operational stability. Some of the most common difficulties include:
- Aging workforce and shrinking labor pool
- Heavy reliance on legacy systems and outdated infrastructure
- Manual, paper-based, and siloed workflows
- Slow DX adoption due to risk sensitivity and compliance requirements
- Rising operational costs and productivity gaps
- Difficulty scaling AI initiatives due to lack of in-house expertise
- Integration complexity across departments and subsidiaries
- Increasing demand for data-driven decision making
These challenges create a strong need for trusted technology partners who can deliver modernization safely, incrementally, and effectively.
