Koji Nagai, Group CEO of Nomura Holdings, commented, "The Olympics and Paralympics, with their significant economic impact, are a catalyst for Japan's economic revival. We want to support not only athletes striving for personal bests, but also companies challenging themselves to transform, contributing to the Games' success, economic growth, and social development."
Organizing Committee Chairman Yoshiro Mori stated, "We hope they will strongly support not only as partners, but also as the foundation of Japan's economic community, the securities market."
