The result of 2nd Batch of Asia DX project coming up and 40 projects selected in total
On 3rd August, it was announced that 17 demonstration projects were selected as the second batch of the Financial Support Program, named “Asia Digital Transformation (ADX)” program.
The Financial Support Program, funded by METI Japan and one of the flagship projects among ASEAN-Japan Economic Resilience Action Plan, aims to promote digital innovation to solve various socio-economic challenges in ASEAN counties. This program covers expenses for demonstration projects on digital technologies carried out by ASEAN and Japanese companies jointly. Through the implementation of the demonstration projects, Japanese companies will proactively contribute to deliberating measures for further disseminating digital innovations and to creating a business environment in collaboration with the governments and private sector in ASEAN countries.
The result of the first batch was already announced last October and 23 projects selected are ongoing. Adding 17 projects in the second batch, 40 projects in total are flagship projects to promote collaboration between ASEAN and Japan’s companies in the digital innovation under the ADX program.
These 40 projects are well diversified in terms of themes, which includes medical, agriculture, fisheries, mobility, tourism, environment, energy, manufacturing and so on as follows. Besides these are implemented across ASEAN region because of wide range of Japanese companies’ business activities.
Details of the individual project will be taken up in the DISG website in the near future.
