HOME > Business Overview : Our business fields Our major four lines of business around the mobile phone development: Content and solution development We cooperate in development efforts and proactively provide development services to various official carrier sites. As of 2005 we are already associated with more than 100 sites in total. Several of the major sites with which we do business have memberships exceeding one million subscribers. Our technical know-how in the content and development business has steadily grown through our experience in operating these sites. With this know-how, Connect Technologies can now support and cover a wide span of services from entertainment to business solutions. Packages and products Connect Technologies makes the most of its experience in the development of mobile phone site server solutions in its business to provide developmental services for middleware and packages. We offer integrated solutions to support both clients and servers, ranging from volume production tools for supplied content data to automated server control and updating. Research and consulting Connect Technologies has the unique capability of offering three services-hardware, software, and network--as an integrated package. Based on this capability, we provide various consultation services related to mobile phones for both content providers and carriers. By feeding back the results of our consultation business to our development unit, we can develop new solutions capable of meeting the diversified demands of both content providers and carriers, two very different types of customer with different needs in business. This lets us use the results of our consultation business to reinforce our ability to create new service business to provide via mobile phones.
