On May 25, 2018, Denka Seiken donated prototypes of Ebola virus rapid diagnostic test kits (QuickNaviTM series) to the DRC. These test kits were co-developed by Denka Seiken and Professor Ayato Takada (Hokkaido University’s Division of Global Epidemiology, Research Center for Zoonosis Control) and are capable of confirming Ebola infection within approximately 15 minutes without using any specific medical facilities. Therefore, these test kits can be used by healthcare practitioners operating in regions with poor medical infrastructure. Looking ahead, we will promote solutions aimed at delivering the early diagnosis of infectious diseases and preventing pandemics.
On August 19, 2018, we held the fourth round of the DENKA BIG SWAN Junior Soccer Festival at DENKA BIG SWAN STADIUM (former Niigata Stadium; renamed upon the acquisition of naming rights by Denka) in collaboration with Itoigawa City’s Board of Education, Sports Association and Soccer Association. With the attendance of approximately 400 people, including children who are members of local junior soccer teams and their parents from regions across Niigata Prefecture, we organized exchange games as well as a soccer clinic by players from ALBIREX NIIGATA, a professional soccer team listed in the J2 League. Going forward, we will take advantage of DENKA BIG SWAN STADIUM as a venue for assisting in the development of regional communities and the promotion of sports activities.
