Training professionals to respond to corporate disclosures in the AI era: "Integrated Report Creation Staff Training Course" to be offered by Sendenkaigi Online; Yūsaku Ōtake and Kōji Mamiya of Willes to serve as instructors

Willes Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Mitsuo Sugimoto), an IR support company connecting investors and listed companies, announced that Kōji Mamiya and Yūsaku Ōtake served as instructors for Parts 7 and 8 of the "Integrated Report Creation Staff Training Course," which began on Friday, June 26, 2026.

In today's corporate communications, integrated reports are increasingly required to have the "ability to clearly convey management strategy and value creation stories to investors."

However, many listed companies' production sites face challenges such as "siloed departments" and "discrepancies between management indicators and on-site KPIs." Willes, which has been involved in planning and producing integrated reports since its founding, is well-versed in these on-site realities and has achieved numerous awards both domestically and internationally by supporting compelling disclosures while working closely with individual clients (over 100 awards in total, including annual reports).

Furthermore, in an era where investors are increasingly utilizing AI for automated analysis, it is also urgent to move beyond disclosures intended solely for human readers and design information that cannot be misinterpreted by machines. This course is being offered to solve these complex production site challenges and to train the next generation of professionals who can transform management's "resolve for structural reform" into "market trust (capital)."

Features of this Course

1. Know-how for implementing a "value creation story" across the entire organization

Explains concrete production steps to reconstruct fragmented internal data and activities into "a single narrative," ensuring consistency from corporate philosophy to on-site KPIs.

2. Explanation of "information structuring" with an eye toward the AI era

Presents the future of information disclosure, such as the logical structure of text optimized for AI automated analysis, taking a step ahead of the times.

3. Next-generation disclosure practices and the latest case studies, linked to the book "Sayonara Integrated Report"

Centered around the concept of "RX3.0," Willes' proposed corporate reporting for the advanced AI era, it covers practical approaches that can be implemented starting tomorrow, incorporating the essence of award-winning reports, video strategies, and specific examples from leading companies.
