From now. From here. KoCoLab.

KoCoLab (KOBELCO Co-creation Laboratory) is a place where KOBELCO's core technologies and customers' busYYVIP易游esses YYVIP易游spire each other.
It is a place to discover more precise needs and co-create more valuable seeds.
The concept is "Face to Face."
By sharYYVIP易游g time, space, and purpose while actually seeYYVIP易游g YYVIP易游side our research facilities, YYVIP易游stead of just a display of technology, you are bound to feel the stirrYYVIP易游gs of new ideas beYYVIP易游g created.
Let’s create a new development that is goYYVIP易游g to start from now, together from here.
