Pacific Consultants Sponsors "Doboku Model Grand Prix 2026 ~National Student Presentation Battle~"

Pacific Consultants Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director: Osamu Omoto) will sponsor the "Doboku Model Grand Prix 2026 ~National Student Presentation Battle~" organized by Nikkei BP Co., Ltd. Nikkei Construction.

The "Doboku Model Grand Prix" is a presentation contest where students use self-made civil engineering models to explain the mechanisms and social roles of civil engineering structures, as well as the importance of disaster prevention and resilience, in an easy-to-understand manner for the general public. A key feature is its emphasis not only on the perfection of the model but also on "how to convey the message."

The first "Doboku Model Grand Prix 2025," held last year, received the Semi-Excellence Award (Event Division) at the "Civil Engineering Public Relations Award 2025" hosted by the Japan Society of Civil Engineers. Nikkei BP website: https://www.nikkeibp.co.jp/atcl/newsrelease/corp/20260317/

Our company has contributed to building safe and secure communities for many years, primarily in the social infrastructure field, through disaster prevention and mitigation measures, and recovery and reconstruction support for large-scale disasters. We endorse the purpose of this competition, which encourages future generations to actively consider and share the significance and appeal of civil engineering, as well as the importance of disaster prevention and resilience, with society. We have been sponsoring this event since its first edition. Through our sponsorship, we aim to contribute to the development of next-generation talent and the promotion of the civil engineering field, as well as to the realization of a sustainable and resilient society.
