On March 30, 2026, naturenix Inc. (head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yasuki Kanazawa; the "Company") participated as a featured startup in the first general meeting and activity-sharing session of the OKB SCLAMB Open Innovation Fund, held at OKB Harmony Plaza Meieki Branch in Nagoya, Aichi.
The OKB SCLAMB Open Innovation Fund was established in February 2025 by the Ogaki Kyoritsu Bank (OKB) Group to foster co-creation between regional core enterprises in the Tokai region and startups. The session featured "reverse pitches" from external limited partners — including Yamada Shokai Holdings, with which naturenix has already formed a strategic ASEAN partnership, alongside Shin Nippon Hoki Publishing, Pacific Industrial, and Miyayoshi Glass — followed by "answer pitches" from participating startups, surfacing concrete forms of collaboration between regional core enterprises and startups.
Alongside external LPs, OKB SCLAMB's supporter companies also attended, creating a venue for dialogue with a diverse range of operating companies based primarily in the Tokai region. Representing naturenix, COO Yuta Akakuma took the stage to introduce the Company's "3minGo!™" 3-minute ultra-fast charging technology and long-life batteries, along with progress in ASEAN deployment, and explored new collaboration possibilities with regional core enterprises.
The Tokai region — Japan's heartland of manufacturing — is a critical area for the Company's hardware development and manufacturing partnerships. Building on the connections made through this gathering, naturenix will continue to pursue co-creation with regional core enterprises.
Venue:
OKB Harmony Plaza Meieki Branch (Nagoya, Aichi)
