For the first TVP, information sessions were held in Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, and Fukuoka from October last year, and 112 venture companies offering services in various lifestyle fields applied. In January of this year, a public screening session was held at Shibuya Hikarie Hall, with presentations from the 12 venture companies that made it to the final selection stage. We decided to collaborate with and support seven of the companies, and have since begun collaborating with them online and in stores at T-SITE.
For the second phase of TVP, information sessions will be held in Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, and Sapporo with the aim of attracting participation from even more venture companies. The briefing session will also feature updates from the first TVP award-winning companies and a panel discussion. We will continue to announce the judges for the final TVP selection and details of the application guidelines as soon as they are decided.
