JIJ Inc. has announced the completion of an additional funding round led by Global Brain Corporation. The investment was contributed by several funds managed by Global Brain, including GB VII, GB VIII, KOIF III, ME Innovation Fund, ANA Future Creation Fund, and KIF II.
Founded in November 2018, JIJ leverages deep expertise in quantum technology and mathematical optimization—academic foundations cultivated at the Institute of Science Tokyo. The company addresses complex industrial challenges that were previously computationally prohibitive for traditional systems, such as manufacturing production scheduling, logistics route optimization, and telecommunications base station management, through its proprietary platform.
JIJ plans to utilize the new capital to accelerate research and development, enhance its product portfolio, and strengthen its business development team. The company is set to scale its operations beyond the domestic market, leveraging its sophisticated technical capabilities to capture international demand. Global Brain has expressed strong confidence in JIJ’s potential for broad industrial application and has committed to providing intensive resource support to drive the company’s global expansion.
