Japanese“Super Creator”Software Developers to Present New Business Plans
at Event in Silicon Valley
***************************************************************************

Information Technology Promotion Agency, Japan (IPA), an incorporated
administrative agency under Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI),
supports a number of promising Japanese software engineers with an advising
and grants program that is designed to encourage the development of
innovative new software applications.  Since its inception in 2000, IPA's
Exploratory Software Project, known as the MITOH Project, has supported over
1000 software engineers.  An elite few from this group have been conferred
with the title of Super Creator.

Seven Super Creators will present their business plans for web services,
network utilities and graphic tools at an event in Silicon Valley.  The
Super Creators were selected and led by Mr. Susumu Furukawa and Mr. William
Saito, both world renowned individuals with experience doing business in the
United States.  From a similar event held in June 2007, several Super
Creators formed partnerships and/or started businesses in the U.S.
Welcoming these Super Creators to Silicon Valley will be a great opportunity
to explore collaboration and partnership possibilities at the frontier of
innovative global business.
