ポスト不況時代の日本において、「人単合一モデル」が持つ戦略的意義
今回のセミナーでゲストたちは「日本経済は過去30年で成長エンジンを失い、日本企業の海外での影響力も弱まってきた」と言及したうえで、「日本経済が停滞する一方で、世界経済は人工知能（AI）やモノのインターネット（IoT）などの技術による新たな知識経済の時代に入っている。日本企業にとっては、このチャンスをとらえて国際舞台で新たなスタートを切れるかどうかが重要になる」との見方を示しました。
また、ディスカッションでは、「この問題を解決するカギは人である」との共通認識が示されました。ただ人材を集めて管理するのではなく、社員が目標に向かって協力し、多様なビジネスを実現し、イノベーションを起こし、機会を開拓するためのビジョンと目標を達成するためのプラットフォームを構築することが、企業のリーダーには求められています。
この点について、ハイアールグループ（海爾集団）副総裁でハイアールジャパンリージョンのCEOを務める杜鏡国氏は日本における企業組織とビジネスイノベーションの成功モデルを紹介しました。ハイアールグループ独自の「人単合一モデル」は、人間を中心とする理念を実践に移した今までにないモデルとして、グローバル企業の中でも異彩を放っています。世界最大の家電メーカーであるハイアールは、この新しい経営モデルで素晴らしい業績をあげています。これはグローバル企業にとって実用的で実績のあるケーススタディであり、その日本での成功例からは、日本企業が新たな知識経済の時代に適応するための示唆を得ることができます。
杜鏡国氏は人単合一モデルの日本での実践について講演する中で、「人」は従業員を、「単」はユーザーのニーズを示し、「人単合一」は従業員とユーザーを結びつけるモデルであると説明し、「社員一人ひとりが自身のCEOとなり、市場にダイレクトに接する自己組織体を形成し、それぞれがユーザーのために価値を創造することで自らの価値を実現する。この人単合一モデルによって、ハイアールは倒産寸前の企業から世界最大の家電メーカーに転身した。このモデルはさらに、ゼネラル・エレクトリックや富士通ヨーロッパ支社など、世界的な企業でも目覚ましい成果を収めてきた」と語りました。
「人単合一」のメカニズムの日本への導入当初は、それが黄金期に確立された日本固有の組織的特質を否定するものであることから、多方面からの抵抗を受けました。例えば、冷蔵庫部門の業績が良かったので、上層部が関係者にボーナスを支給しようとしたところ、中間管理職のほとんどがこれに反対しました。彼らの意見は「日本の企業文化はチームワークの精神で成り立っている。すべての従業員は平等に扱われ、ボーナスも平等に与えられるべきだ」というものでした。その後、半年近くにわたって議論と妥協を繰り替えした末に、チームはついに、年功序列ではなく、個人の貢献に基づいてインセンティブを与えることに合意しました。ハイアールジャパンチームはこのインセンティブ制度によって、市場に応じた目標を設定し、事業目標を個人のレベルに落とし込んで、個人目標とチーム目標を一致させています。目標へ向けた業務の内容は人事部門によって追跡され、経営陣によって評価されます。この変革がハイアールジャパンの業績を引き上げました。2020年の時点で、ハイアールは日本のハイエンド白物家電市場でのポジションを急速に高め、数々のヒット商品や革新的な商品を世に送り出すことに成功したのです。
杜鏡国氏はハイアールジャパンのチームを例に挙げ、「人単合一モデルの実施初期に、ハイアールジャパンはユーザーのためのイノベーティブなビジネスモデルを徹底するため、マイクロエンタープライズを立ち上げた。特筆すべきはコインランドリーを扱うAQUA（アクア）だ」と示しました。AQUA社は数年前、家庭用洗濯機では洗えない大きくて重いカーテンや布団などを洗う、コインランドリーという市場が持つ発展の潜在性とニーズを見出しました。そして、業務用洗濯機や乾燥機の開発に5億円を投資し、新技術の導入とイノベーションを継続することで、コインランドリーの利用におけるユーザーエクスペリエンスを向上させました。ユーザーはネットを通じて最寄りのAQUAのある店舗を検索し、洗濯機の空き状況を確認し、オンラインで洗濯の予約をすることもできるようになっています。
さらに、現在のAQUAは洗濯機の製造・販売だけでなく、IoT時代のクラウドシステムを通じて、幅広い異業種のパートナーとランドリーシーンのエコシステムを構築しています。そのパートナーには、ファミリーマート、ENEOS、無印良品、ほっかほっか亭などの有名企業も含まれます。こうした協力はパートナー企業に消費者をもたらし、消費者にも洗濯、生活サービス、ショッピングを含むワンストップで便利なサービス体験をもたらしています。AQUAは現在、日本全国のコインランドリー3500店舗に4万3000台以上のIoT洗濯・乾燥機を設置しています。このシステムにより、AQUAは消費者向けのハードウェア製品を提供すると同時に、事業者向けにカスタマイズされた地域のプラットフォームとしても機能しています。あるパートナー企業は、200店舗以上のコインランドリーを経営するために以前は300人の従業員を必要としていました。しかし、AQUAシステムを導入したことにより、本社からでもリモートで洗濯機の稼働状況がチェック可能になり、現在では30人で600店舗を運営できるまでにコストカットが実現しました。さらに、光熱費の使用状況や洗濯機の使用時間をリアルタイムで把握できるため、企業全体の粗利益を効果的に向上させることにもつながっています。
日本（および中国、米国、欧州）における人単合一モデルの成功は、知識経済の時代において、企業が業務の集合知と従業員の自己組織化という強みを活用することで、根深い官僚主義を打ち破り、迅速な革新を実現し、顧客との関係を深め、企業のコアコンピタンスを強化できることを実証しています。このような経営理念や組織モデルがさらに多くの日本企業に採用されるかどうかはまだ未知数ですが、期待して見守りたいものです。

NECファシリティーズ 産業廃棄物処理施設向け国内初となるホウ素排水処理技術を開発
本技術はセルロース繊維を母体とした特殊な吸着材に、浸出水に含まれる阻害物質に対しても吸着効果を持続させる技術を加えたものです。産業廃棄物の埋立処分場に本技術を適用し、一年間にわたる実証運転で安定的な稼働と従来比１／６となる大幅な処理コストの削減を確認しました。
背景および特長
廃棄物埋立処分場における浸出水には廃棄物を構成する物質由来の多種多様な成分が含まれています。難処理物質であるホウ素もその一つであり、一般にホウ素の除去には樹脂（注2）を母体とした、粒状キレート吸着材が用いられています。
一方当社は、ホウ素の吸着速度や吸着量に優れた、微細なセルロース繊維を母材とする繊維状キレート吸着材を開発したキレスト株式会社と協力し、ランニングコストを大幅に低減できる大規模設備向けの装置を実用化しており（注3）、ホウ素を含有する排水処理に適用してまいりました（注4）。
しかしながら繊維状キレート吸着材は優れた特性を有する一方で、浸出水に代表される、カルシウム等の硬水成分や炭酸を高濃度含む排水の場合には、通水を阻害する物質が吸着材に析出し、水の流れを偏流させ長期的な運用が困難であるという問題がありました。
今般、当社はこの問題解決のため、阻害物質が繊維表面に析出した場合の対策技術を開発し、浸出水に特有の成分を高濃度に含む場合であっても長期の安定稼働が可能となる技術を確立したものです。
具体的には、徐々に吸着材表面に炭酸カルシウム等の物質が析出しつつあるタイミングにおいて、吸着材を傷つけない程度の撹拌により析出物を切り離すとともに、酸アルカリの通液により析出物を溶解させることで、ほぼ完全に析出物を除去する技術です。
今回、廃棄物埋立処分場に当技術を導入することにより、優れた吸着除去能力を長期間保持できることが実証され、浸出水中のホウ素を安定的に処理することが可能となりました。また、高い吸着除去能力の維持は繊維状キレート吸着材が持つランニングコスト低減という本来の優れた特性を活かすことにつながり、吸着材の再生形態をオンサイト型（注5）とすることと相まり、今般の一年間の実証運転では従来の1/6となるランニングコストの低減を実現しています。
今後の展開
NECファシリティーズはお客様工場のライフサイクルマネジメント（Factory life cycle management）にTotal IFM（注6）で貢献し、総合的な課題解決を提供しています。
今回、廃棄物埋立処分場向けに繊維状キレート吸着材を用いたホウ素除去技術の開発に成功。実施設へ導入し、優れた運用性能とコストメリットを実証しました。これらの阻害物質は、浸出水以外にも温泉排水、地熱水、ごみ焼却場洗煙排水に多く含まれるため、今後これらの排水処理への適用拡大が期待されます。今後、こうしたお客様施設への設備導入により、本技術による事業を今後5年間で売上20億円を目指すとともに、お客様施設および周辺への環境保全リスクの軽減並びにSDGsの実現に貢献してまいります。

NexBloc and Arcade Network Partner to Bring Blockchain Domains to Gaming in the Metaverse
 |
|
|
With the rise of multiple metaverse offerings, creating interoperable asset exchange has become one of the most promising advancements in technology for the decentralized space. Assets that are NFT (non-fungible token) can be named as domains under blockchain DNS (bDNS) for the purpose of creating a hierarchy and ownership structure. For instance, rather than having lots of NFT's as hashes connected to the stored asset, we can now set up a domain structure such as .arc and then yourname.arc. Yourname.arc can act like a website which holds any number of connections to assets. As such, an asset like a shield might be called shield1.yourname.arc.
Using bDNS allows for an evolving system that has similarities with the current DNS structures, making it much easier for everyone to understand how to classify and access their assets. Wordpress and blog software allowed anyone to put images into a website and position those assets for use. Likewise, NexBloc and Arcade Network are creating the ability for any metaverse asset to be accessible to various applications and systems.
Dana Farbo, Founder of NexBloc stated, "domain naming with human-readable names has proven to be the preferred method of using a web-based environment. As people, we understand this type of a system rather than a hash based or other naming convention. NexBloc will use our omnichain platform to extend the Polygon development for Arcade Network and build a specific environment for cross-metaverse assets."
Arcade Network Founder Chinka Gupta added, "Using NexBloc's bDNS, we will be able to add significant value to our ecosystem partners and further our mission of creating metaverses on the fly using ArcVerse. We will bring out new tools specific to the gaming world using domains, NFTs and applications that allow for an interconnected world in Web 3.0."
The rollout of the bDNS for Arcade Network will start with the creation of a bTLD and include a reservation system for gamers to register for blockchain domains beginning February 1st. Other tools will continually be added to increase value to users of the partner network.
About ArcadeNetwork
ArcadeNetwork is a well-defined, intuitive, and resourceful decentralizing platform that provides an advanced experience in gaming metaverses. Powered by Polygon, it provides interoperability in the gaming ecosystem. They also aim to standardize the gaming industry with their $ARC tokens, providing easy transactions at any point in time.

GCBC is Giving Rare NFT Holders a Seat at the Owner's Table
TORONTO, ON, Jan 18, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Great Canadian Beaver Club [GCBC], an original and private club with a collection of over 10,420 NFTs, has announced its decision to offer holders of these rare NFT memberships a seat at the owner's table. Tagged the first community structured NFT platform, GCBC is allowing these holders to sit and speak for the community.
\
The first Canadian club with no borders, GCBC has a clear roadmap first of which includes the launch of its decentralized finance [DeFi] app which will be a free-to-use platform for all GCBC holders. In addition to this, this private club seeks to incentivize token holders by offering them an opportunity to stake GCBC NFT memberships to earn $PELT tokens. A 30-day pre-stake or burn period has been integrated into the contract. Members must stake for 30 days before rewards are issued. $PELT Tokens that would be rewarded if staked will be sent to a burn address if not staked, creating a deflationary supply of $PELT.
$PELT tokens, furthermore, will have in-app usage—allowing owners to execute transactions and undertake tasks on the network.
An impressive feature of this exclusive Canadian club is its firm resolve to foster proper compensation of token holders and community members alike. As part of its plans to deliver this, a community bank has been initiated. To fund this bank, GCBC has partnered with one of the leading Bitcoin ATM providers, and according to the details of the agreement, 100% of the revenue generated will be sent to the bank. That's not all, 50% of aftermarket sales, starting from day 1, will be sent to the bank as well as 20% of the total supply of $PELT.
Yet another impressive feature of GCBC is the Most Valuable Beaver [MVB] facet. Aimed at rewarding beavers for their extensive work towards the growth of the club, this feature will aid in the promotion of a role-based colony where constant support is appreciated and rewarded.
GCBC Lodges - Giving NFT Holders a Seat at the Owner's Table
Giving holders private access and input in the overall decision-making process, GCBC has instituted an array of lodges. First of these lodges is the Political Lodge which will give these NFT holders exclusive access to govern the colony based on a set of evolving guidelines.
The Beavers Den, on the other hand, will give GCBC NFT owners access to make input on blockchain investments to diversify their portfolios. The Celebrity, Technology, and Party Lodges will give holders of these rare NFTs access to make input on advertising campaigns, technological developments for the colony, and planning of exclusive annual parties, respectively.
About GCBC
The Great Canadian Beaver Club otherwise referred to as GCBC is an exclusive club with a collection of 10,420 rare and unique NFTs which exist on an ERC-721 contract on the premier DApp network, Ethereum. Comprising 250+ hand-drawn traits from talented artist Dino Tomic, each of these NFTs is one of a kind. Aimed at giving these membership holders access to a plethora of lodges and incentives, GCBC is offering these owners seats at the decision-making table.

The Metaverse Celebrates a Win with the Launch of the Nosana Token
Amsterdam, Nl, Jan 18, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - The Nosana Network is Solana's decentralized solution for crowd-computing, performing the computations needed to power projects in the Metaverse. Nosana is excited to announce that after a successful IDO on Solanium.io which sold out in 2 days, the platform has successfully closed the funding rounds with $1.5 Million raised. The $NOS token has since then been listed on the exchanges Gate.io, Raydium, and MEXC.
Everybody wants a piece of the metaverse; with Facebook rebranding itself to Meta Platforms, the giant company signaled that the metaverse isn't just a fleeting trend. Thus, companies, brands, and projects far and wide are getting into the metaverse in one way or another.
Nosana is one of the newest Solana-based projects to dive headfirst into the metaverse. As a crowd-computing network, Nosana promises a cheaper, accessible, and sustainable alternative for centralized cloud solutions by utilizing spare capacity. With a lot of chatter surrounding their launch, they will get the chance to demonstrate these capabilities by delivering the necessary computations for the metaverse.
With clear objectives and the technical expertise to back it up, Nosana is poised to be the decentralized infrastructure of the Metaverse.
"As in any hype cycle, there's a temptation for startups to position themselves as a "metaverse company" to ride the buzz, but Nosana has strong fundamentals, a compelling vision, and solid technology that is better than any existing or coming solutions. They're at the forefront of it all." - Craig Percoco, Inevitrade
Nosana is now readying their Incentivized Testnet, which will give teams a chance to try out Nosana's features and tools before going to mainnet. Projects and teams who register and are selected will receive tokens for running pipelines on the testnet, culminating in the airdrop of mainnet tokens. The incentivized TestNet is planned to go live by the end of February, with developers having the chance to pre-register their projects now through the Nosana.io website.
The Nosana Network will be the leading provider of decentralized CPU-based Dev(ops) solutions, revolutionizing the development process of Metaverse projects. The network allows projects to develop with the computing power of the crowd to power the computational needs of projects within the metaverse via the $NOS token.

In addition to this, this private club seeks to incentivize token holders by offering them an opportunity to stake GCBC NFT memberships to earn $PELT tokens. A 30-day pre-stake or burn period has been integrated into the contract. Members must stake for 30 days before rewards are issued. $PELT Tokens that would be rewarded if staked will be sent to a burn address if not staked, creating a deflationary supply of $PELT.
$PELT tokens, furthermore, will have in-app usage—allowing owners to execute transactions and undertake tasks on the network.
An impressive feature of this exclusive Canadian club is its firm resolve to foster proper compensation of token holders and community members alike. As part of its plans to deliver this, a community bank has been initiated. To fund this bank, GCBC has partnered with one of the leading Bitcoin ATM providers, and according to the details of the agreement, 100% of the revenue generated will be sent to the bank. That's not all, 50% of aftermarket sales, starting from day 1, will be sent to the bank as well as 20% of the total supply of $PELT.
Yet another impressive feature of GCBC is the Most Valuable Beaver [MVB] facet. Aimed at rewarding beavers for their extensive work towards the growth of the club, this feature will aid in the promotion of a role-based colony where constant support is appreciated and rewarded.
GCBC Lodges - Giving NFT Holders a Seat at the Owner's Table
Giving holders private access and input in the overall decision-making process, GCBC has instituted an array of lodges. First of these lodges is the Political Lodge which will give these NFT holders exclusive access to govern the colony based on a set of evolving guidelines.
The Beavers Den, on the other hand, will give GCBC NFT owners access to make input on blockchain investments to diversify their portfolios. The Celebrity, Technology, and Party Lodges will give holders of these rare NFTs access to make input on advertising campaigns, technological developments for the colony, and planning of exclusive annual parties, respectively.
About GCBC
The Great Canadian Beaver Club otherwise referred to as GCBC is an exclusive club with a collection of 10,420 rare and unique NFTs which exist on an ERC-721 contract on the premier DApp network, Ethereum. Comprising 250+ hand-drawn traits from talented artist Dino Tomic, each of these NFTs is one of a kind. Aimed at giving these membership holders access to a plethora of lodges and incentives, GCBC is offering these owners seats at the decision-making table.

The Metaverse Celebrates a Win with the Launch of the Nosana Token
Amsterdam, Nl, Jan 18, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - The Nosana Network is Solana's decentralized solution for crowd-computing, performing the computations needed to power projects in the Metaverse. Nosana is excited to announce that after a successful IDO on Solanium.io which sold out in 2 days, the platform has successfully closed the funding rounds with $1.5 Million raised. The $NOS token has since then been listed on the exchanges Gate.io, Raydium, and MEXC.
Everybody wants a piece of the metaverse; with Facebook rebranding itself to Meta Platforms, the giant company signaled that the metaverse isn't just a fleeting trend. Thus, companies, brands, and projects far and wide are getting into the metaverse in one way or another.
Nosana is one of the newest Solana-based projects to dive headfirst into the metaverse. As a crowd-computing network, Nosana promises a cheaper, accessible, and sustainable alternative for centralized cloud solutions by utilizing spare capacity. With a lot of chatter surrounding their launch, they will get the chance to demonstrate these capabilities by delivering the necessary computations for the metaverse.
With clear objectives and the technical expertise to back it up, Nosana is poised to be the decentralized infrastructure of the Metaverse.
"As in any hype cycle, there's a temptation for startups to position themselves as a "metaverse company" to ride the buzz, but Nosana has strong fundamentals, a compelling vision, and solid technology that is better than any existing or coming solutions. They're at the forefront of it all." - Craig Percoco, Inevitrade
Nosana is now readying their Incentivized Testnet, which will give teams a chance to try out Nosana's features and tools before going to mainnet. Projects and teams who register and are selected will receive tokens for running pipelines on the testnet, culminating in the airdrop of mainnet tokens. The incentivized TestNet is planned to go live by the end of February, with developers having the chance to pre-register their projects now through the Nosana.io website.
The Nosana Network will be the leading provider of decentralized CPU-based Dev(ops) solutions, revolutionizing the development process of Metaverse projects. The network allows projects to develop with the computing power of the crowd to power the computational needs of projects within the metaverse via the $NOS token.

Tiny electric generators could accelerate wound healing
 |
|
|
The natural wound healing process involves complex interactions between ions, cells, blood vessels, genes and the immune system; with every player triggered by a sequence of molecular events. An integral part of this process involves the generation of a weak electric field by the damaged epithelium - the layer of cells covering tissue. The electric field forms as a result of an ion gradient in the wound bed, which plays an important role in directing cell migration and promoting blood vessel formation in the area.
Scientists discovered in the mid- to late-1900s that stimulating tissue with an electric field could improve wound healing. Current research in this field is now focused on developing small, wearable, and inexpensive patches that aren't encumbered by external electrical equipment.
This has led to research on piezoelectric materials, including natural materials like crystals, silk, wood, bone, hair and rubber, and synthetic materials such as quartz analogs, ceramics and polymers. These materials generate an electric current when exposed to mechanical stress. Nanogenerators developed using the synthetic materials are especially promising.
For example, some research teams are exploring the use of self-powered piezoelectric nanogenerators made with zinc oxide nanorods on a polydimethylsiloxane matrix for accelerating wound healing. Zinc oxide has the advantage of being piezoelectric and biocompatible. Other scientists are using scaffolds made from polyurethane and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) due to their high piezoelectricity, chemical stability, ease of manufacturing and biocompatibility. These and other piezoelectric nanogenerators have shown promising results in laboratory and animal studies.
Another type of device, called a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), produces an electric current when two interfacing materials come into and out of contact with each other. Scientists have experimented with TENGs that generate electricity from breathing movements, for example, to accelerate wound healing in rats. They have also loaded TENG patches with antibiotics to facilitate wound healing by also treating localized infection.
"Piezoelectric and triboelectric nanogenerators are excellent candidates for self-assisted wound healing due to their light weight, flexibility, elasticity and biocompatibility," says bioengineer Zong-Hong Lin of the National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan. "But there are still several bottlenecks to their clinical application."
For example, they still need to be customized so they are fit-for-size, as wound dimensions vary widely. They also need to be firmly attached without being negatively affected or corroded by the fluids that naturally exude from wounds.
"Our future aim is to develop cost-effective and highly efficient wound dressing systems for practical clinical applications," says Lin.

Startup Funding - Wikisoft Corp. plans Digital Shake-up
San Francisco, Jan 18, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - Wikisoft Corp. (OTCQB:WSFT), a big data and business analytics company, today announced plans to digitize startup funding and accelerate matching startups with investors.
Once a startup's seed investment round is secured then the fledgling company powers ahead to create a minimal viable product (MVP). Once the MVP is proven, the founders of the startup will soon require further investment to accelerate growth. They participate in a series of investment rounds - series A, B or C, depending on the maturity of the business.
This is a stressful period and an arduous process involving introductions, pitches, negotiations, term sheets, and all the intricacies that go with each stage and every round. The time is ripe to change from manual processes to digital, creating a trusted and authenticated system to bring together high-potential, dynamic, young, fully-operational startups with groups of wily discerning tech investors looking for capital appreciation.
Deloitte recently wrote that 23% of the fund order process is still being handled manually, mainly though fax orders which have a significant impact on distribution costs. PwC surveyed 100 Private Equity houses with a minimum EUR250m assets under management. The PE houses named digitization as the most important megatrend influencing new investment.
Wikisoft, listed on OTCQB, is a fast growing, international, agile, big-data-powered, company which in today's fast-moving business world of increasing globalization leverages big data and associated insights from global business datasets to improve performance.
In line with this new phase of digitization and globalization, Wikisoft sees a growing demand for access to credible and reliable business data about startups and investors and has an ambition to digitalize the process of matching the right startup with the right investor and accelerate the investment process.
Carsten Kjems Falk, Wikisoft's CEO, spoke about the company's vision, "Our advancement will accelerate matching investor to startup, and vice versa, at a lower risk through credible and reliable business data. Series A, B and C investment rounds will be more efficient for all parties via digitization. It will enable startups to concentrate on scaling-up their business, becoming highly valued, and eventually opening the possibilities for even further expansion. Investors will have an efficient way of finding prospects and make the right investments."

Affordable housing has created huge market potentials for prefabricated buildings
HONG KONG, Jan 17, 2022 - (JCN Newswire) - Affordable housing has created huge market potentials for prefabricated and green buildings.
Recently, frequent implementation of affordable housing support policies has created huge market potentials for prefabricated and green buildings. Market analysis pointed out that PC component manufacturers in the prefabricated construction supply chain will be key beneficiaries from these new policies.
As the most preferred brand in the prefabricated construction industry for three consecutive years, Broad Homes (02163.HK) will likely benefit from the recent policy catalysts. To highlight, the Company operates in both to-B and to-C business under its dual mode business model, which gives the Company potential to grasp onto a larger market share in this industry uptrend.
First and second tier cities are actively responding to affordable housing policies.
According to market data, since the beginning of December 2021, the Prefabricated Building Index (931020) rose nearly 10%, driven by discussions during the Politburo meeting in December to further promote construction of affordable housing. Similar discussions also took place during the Central Economic Work Conference, indicating growing interest from high-level officials.
In the past year, affordable housing support policies have been frequently issued. The Politburo meeting mentioned the promotion of affordable housing construction for the first time in April and again in December. In addition, in July, the Politburo discussed the need to accelerate rental housing development and implemented supporting policies surrounding land usage and taxation. During the Central Economic Work Conference in December, discussions surrounding the need to "accelerate the development of the long-term rental housing market, promote the construction of indemnificatory housing, support the commercial housing market and better meet reasonable housing needs of buyers" are highlighted. Huachuang Securities pointed out that both the Politburo meeting and the Central Economic Work Conference have prioritized affordable housing before commercial housing, reiterating high-level officials' focus on affordable housing.
In terms of specific development goals, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued the "Notice on the Monitoring and Evaluation of the Development of Affordable Rental Housing in 2021" in November 2021. The notice monitoring and evaluation of the development of affordable rental housing in 2021 in November. The notice outlined that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the supply of affordable rental housing will be largely increased, and the proportion of new affordable rental housing to total new housing supply is targeted to reach 30% or more.
Meanwhile, key first and second tier cities have responded actively to recent policies and announced relevant targets for affordable housing construction during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. Among them, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen set targets of over 45% for new affordable housing to total new housing supply.
The affordable housing industry is one of the most important application areas for prefabricated buildings. Therefore, the acceleration and expansion of the affordable housing market will generate growing demand for prefabricated buildings.
According to Huachuang Securities' estimates, the annual new construction area of 123 million sqm corresponds to RMB 446.3 billion in affordable housing related investments, indicating huge volume growth in the affordable housing sector. Considering part of the growth will be hindered by the impact of fluctuations in real estate regulations, the proportion of prefabricated buildings to new construction buildings will continue to increase, benefiting industry leaders in the prefabricated construction sector.
Prefabricated buildings is the most optimal method of construction under the "dual carbon" targets
Prefabricated building refers to the use of modern manufacturing, transportation, installation and scientific management of production in replacement of traditional production where manufacturing process is more scattered, offers lower quality and efficiency, and requires intensive human labor. The key characteristics of prefabricated construction is standardization of architectural designs, industrialization of component production, mechanization of construction, and scientific organization and management. These include residential buildings produced through prefabricated construction methods.
There are two reasons to support why prefabricated buildings best fit affordable housing demands.
Firstly, prefabricated construction method significantly shortens the construction period. Time-saving is the key advantage of prefabricated buildings because early delivery corresponds to earlier collection of rent. According to Everbright Securities' estimates, assuming rental price of affordable housing is RMB40 per sqm per month, saving 9 months of construction period would correspond to a total cost savings of RMB360 per sqm.
Secondly, prefabricated buildings help reduce environmental burden throughout the construction process. Different from traditional construction methods, prefabricated construction reduces manual operation and on-site wet construction, and incorporates digitally integrated technologies to support the modernization, intelligence, and other green construction characteristics. Prefabricated buildings also best fit the low-carbon building criteria for affordable housing. The "dual carbon" target acts as an important requirement for construction projects and helps guide the industry towards adopting more green methods of construction.
Founded in 2006, Broad Homes is the largest manufacturer of PC components and PC production equipment in China. In November 2010, Broad Homes was listed on the HKEX and is also the first company to IPO in the prefabricated construction sector.
According to Broad Homes' 2021 Interim Results, the Company's PC component revenue increased 12.4% YoY to RMB1.138 billion; PC production equipment business increased 306.6% YoY to RMB221 million. The increase in revenue is driven by market expansion and growing demand of PC components.
As the pioneer and leader of China's construction industrialization, Broad Homes adheres to green development. Guided by the "14th Five-Year Plan" and 2035 targets, the Company aims to continuously improve the quality and efficiency of industrialized production, better serve the need for green and low-carbon development in rural areas, and explore innovative ways to promote the construction of affordable housing.
Broad Home's innovative prefabricated product development maximizes time value saved from early delivery.
It is worth noting that, in addition to the PC component business on the to-B end, Broad Homes also launched products on the to-C end in the second half of 2021.The three products from the to-C business are highly standardized and fully assembled buildings, including PC high-rise buildings, B-Homes(fully assembled, low-rise/multi-story buildings), and BOX modules.
These products are characterized by their short construction period. It is reported that the multi-story, fully-assembled B-Homes' main body can be completed in 8 days and delivered with fine decoration within 100 days. This breakthrough in quality and efficiency truly allows the productization of buildings.
Broad Homes noted that the Company has accumulated years of experience through their B-Home business and will bring positive synergy to the new BOX Module product. The amount of new contracts from BOX Module shows that the product is already gaining market traction with the price of fully-prefabricated buildings being lower than cast-in-place buildings. With many projects in the pipeline, the Company will continue to explore innovate application areas for prefabricated buildings.
