🇯🇵 CUBIG Joins the KDB NextONE Business Meet-up in Tokyo
CUBIG participated in the KDB NextONE Business Meet-up held at Shibuya Scramble Square on October 20, connecting with Japanese enterprises seeking new ways to adopt AI safely. The event gathered ten Korean startups and a broad range of Japanese companies, offering a firsthand look at the challenges created by Japan’s strict data protection rules.
Many organizations expressed the same concern: they want to use AI, but sensitive data cannot leave internal systems or be processed externally. This restriction has slowed or halted many AI initiatives, especially in finance, healthcare, and the public sector. As a result, Japanese companies showed strong interest in methods that allow them to generate insights without exposing real data.
🤝 Conversations That Revealed Real AI Barriers
During pre-arranged discussions, Japanese enterprises visited the CUBIG booth to openly share their obstacles. Some struggled with customer logs that contained sensitive information requiring slow approval processes. Others operated entirely inside isolated networks, making external AI integration nearly impossible.
When CUBIG introduced synthetic data as a way to reflect statistical and contextual patterns without accessing original data, many visitors were intrigued. The idea of performing analysis, prediction, and simulation inside non-export, fully restricted environments resonated strongly with their immediate needs.
💡 What Japanese Companies Need for AI Adoption
Through these conversations, several clear requirements emerged. Japanese organizations need a collaboration model that does not export sensitive information, an AI environment compatible with regulatory demands, simulation capabilities that work when real data is limited, and a fast, low-risk way to validate AI projects internally.
Synthetic data naturally addresses these needs, offering a practical and compliant pathway for AI adoption across Japan’s privacy-first landscape. The meet-up confirmed that synthetic data may serve as the missing foundation that allows Japanese enterprises to move forward with meaningful AI applications.
📸 A Positive Close in Tokyo
The event concluded with a group photo featuring both Korean startups and Japanese partners, capturing an atmosphere of shared optimism. Tokyo made one thing clear: Japan is ready for AI innovation but confined by strict data rules, and synthetic data may be the key that finally unlocks progress.
CUBIG will continue to work with partners in Japan and around the world to provide safe, effective, and future-ready ways to unlock the value of data in the AI era.
