Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Introduces "Rental Transfer" for the First Time to Foster Talent Capable of Proactively Creating Value Through New Business Experience at Venture Companies

LoanDEAL Inc. (Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representatives: Koki Goto, Yusuke Okawa) has begun offering "Rental Transfer," a program where individuals participate in another company for a fixed period while remaining employed by their original organization, to Meiji Yasuda Life Insurance Company (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Executive President: Hideki Nagashima; hereinafter referred to as "Meiji Yasuda").

Amidst intensifying innovation competition and growing interest in human capital investment, Meiji Yasuda believes that fostering talent capable of co-creating new value with others is crucial for advancing management and further enhancing the quality of products and services. Furthermore, as they promote initiatives to support the proactive career development and challenges of each employee, providing practical external growth opportunities for employees wishing to develop their abilities proactively has been one of their challenges.

This "Rental Transfer" program was implemented through a public application process, stemming from these backgrounds. By having motivated employees engage in planning and managing new businesses at venture companies, the program aims to enhance their proactiveness and drive, as well as to acquire advanced technologies and know-how related to new value creation processes and service development.

Meiji Yasuda has also introduced "outsight," LoanDEAL's online cross-border program (90 minutes once a week), with cumulative participants exceeding 100. With the introduction of "Rental Transfer," in addition to online cross-border learning, they will provide opportunities to gain practical experience in promoting business outside the company, further advancing human resource development through cross-border learning.

Going forward, LoanDEAL will continue to support human resource development in large corporations, the creation of organizations that leverage individuality and diversity to foster innovation, and the business promotion of venture companies through "Rental Transfer." They aim to realize a society where more and more people stimulate each other across boundaries, and challenges spread like ripples.
