Headquartered in Tokyo, ISFNET operates the largest business in Japan in the fields of cloud, solutions, and IT infrastructure construction, and has branches in three overseas countries including Korea.

The company recognized the excellence of Yeungjin College graduates in the Japanese IT industry and directly requested the university in 2017 to establish an international cooperative customized education agreement.

Accordingly, the university's Computer Information Department launched the "Japan Network Customized Class" in 2018 based on the curriculum requested by the company. Including 14 graduates this year, a total of 79 students have been employed by the company so far.

In the afternoon, Chairman Watanabe held a lunch meeting with 16 third-year students expected to graduate from the cooperative class and conducted a company briefing session for second-year students of the cooperative class.

He said, "I am very satisfied that Yeungjin alumni employees are not only diligent but also possess expertise as global talents. Our company provides a personnel system without discrimination based on gender, nationality, or age, and offers opportunities such as dispatch to overseas branches," adding, "I am pleased to support scholarships for future talents who will work with the company."
