During the tour guided by Takayuki Morita, President and CEO of NEC, it was emphasized that digital technologies including biometric authentication are essential for creating a fair, efficient, and sustainable society. Prime Minister Luxon expressed expectations for NEC’s advanced technologies to help contribute to the provision of safe and secure societal infrastructure as New Zealand and Japan share many of the same social challenges.
