Press Release Details

2WINS Inc. (Headquarters: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kotetsu Ogawa), an AI startup originating from the University of Tokyo, and Mitsubishi UFJ Research and Consulting Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Masakazu Ikeda; hereinafter "MURC") are pleased to announce the joint development and launch of "Gov Sales TM," an AI analysis tool designed to support sales activities targeting local governments.

### Background and Development

Administrative challenges such as the aging population, climate change, and digitalization are becoming increasingly complex. Consequently, municipalities are actively seeking private sector solutions and expertise. While business opportunities with local governments are expanding, sales efforts traditionally require intensive reading of massive public documents, including budget statements and council minutes. This research process takes hours per case and demands high expertise, posing a long-standing barrier. To address these challenges, MURC and 2WINS have jointly developed this service.

### Partnership with MURC

As a comprehensive think tank of the Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, MURC provides consulting, policy research, and data infrastructure. 2WINS, based in Hongo near the University of Tokyo, offers practical AI solutions ranging from foundation models to mathematical optimization. By combining MURC's structured database—covering budget information from approximately 90% of Japan's municipalities—with 2WINS's core AI technology, the partnership has achieved high-precision information collection and matchmaking.

### Representative Comments

**Masahide Kawamura, General Manager, Social Impact Partnership Division, MURC:** "We chose 2WINS because they possess both top-tier AI technical capabilities from the Matsuo Lab and the 'implementation power' to see a project through to operation. Their execution was essential to transform our vast data into a product that field workers can truly master. 'Gov Sales' is not just an efficiency tool; it is an engine for a 'Public-Private Co-creation Ecosystem.'"

**Kotetsu Ogawa, CEO, 2WINS Inc.:** "Our mission is to create social value through 'AI for Success.' We are honored to create new value in the form of 'Gov Sales TM' by combining MURC's deep municipality knowledge with our AI technology. We hope this service removes traditional barriers and acts as a bridge for richer collaboration between private companies and local governments."
