This year, with the aim of speeding up collaboration and service development with CCC, we solicited proposals for new services that utilize CCC's resources and plans to launch new businesses together with CCC. From the many applications, four teams were selected to take part in the final judging session.
After a rigorous judging process, the top prize, the "CCC Award," was awarded to "Omukae Sister/dot.school," an English liberal arts school for elementary school students run by Selan Co., Ltd., and the special award, the "TSUTAYA Award," which was hastily established, was awarded to "comicspace," a word-of-mouth information service for manga fans run by comicspace Co., Ltd.

■ Final results of the 6th "T-VENTURE PROGRAM" and comments from the winners

・CCC Award: Selan Co., Ltd. / English liberal arts school for elementary school students "Omukae Sister/dot.school"
"I am extremely honored to receive this award. The Borderless School concept has been our dream since the company was founded,
Today I feel so happy and overwhelmed because I feel like I've come closer to my dream. As we expanded our school, we wanted to do it in a place that had a strong passion and philosophy, so we applied for TVP with CCC, which operates Tsutaya Bookstore. I'm very excited to think that we can do some fun things together."

・ TSUTAYA Award: comicspace Inc. / "comicspace," a word-of-mouth information service for manga fans
"I am extremely grateful to have been given such a valuable opportunity and to receive such an award. Above all, we are able to stand here today thanks to our users who use "comicspace."I also believe that I have been able to get to this point thanks to the support of my fellow members and mentors. Thank you very much. I was influenced by "Filmarks," which has previously won a TVP award. We have a program like this
It was my first time participating in the program, but I learned a lot from talking with my mentor."

The companies that received the CCC Award and the Excellence Award will gradually begin collaborating with the CCC Group's various businesses to develop services that will enrich the diversifying lifestyles of our customers.

*We will continue to make announcements regarding service collaborations in the future.

Through these efforts, the CCC Group will continue to strive to create customer value that is tailored to the diversifying lifestyles of its customers.

■General comments from the judging panel: Muneaki Masuda, President and CEO of Culture Convenience Club Co., Ltd.
"We began accepting entries in August, and 10 companies came to the second round of judging in September, with four of those companies joining us for the final judging session today.
It is often said that the essence of a plan is originality, but I actually think that the idea of combining something with something else is what makes a plan. Both TSUTAYA and the T Card are the result of this combination. So, at TVP, we hope to merge your ideas with what we have and create something new.
Recently, I have a favorite phrase. It's an African proverb. "If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go with others."
I hope that CCC will be included in the "everyone" that everyone on stage means to you today."
