Panasonic Corp, as the primary party in the land readjustment project, has gained approval to go ahead with construction ofnthe Fujisawa Sustainable Smart Town (Fujisawa SST), a pioneering smart city project which has been planned with Fujisawa City and 11 other partner companies.

The Fujisawa SST project aims to realize a new type of town development and services through Panasonic’s comprehensive solutions focused on day to day life, including its energy management systems. In order to provide the sustainable and smart services and realize the environmental, safety and security targets of the project, Panasonic and other partner companies will establish a town management company in March 2013, provisionally titled the Fujisawa Town Management Company.

The town management company will provide eight smart services (energy, security, mobility, community, healthcare, club services, finance, and asset management) and collaborate with service companies, businesses, local residents, and local government to not only promote the management of the town, but support the development of a community that can create new value in everyday life. In addition, though cooperating with industry, government and academia, and the local residents to create new services, the town management company will run the continually evolving town as a business.
