Do you have a great idea but can't bring it to fruition and are having trouble starting a new business?
"We have a great idea, but we don't know how to put it into shape." "We don't have enough resources to solve technical problems." Macnica 's Manufacturing Consulting (Monocon®) will fully support in-house venture projects that have such concerns. In this article, we will introduce the support provided by Monocon® and its strengths.
Let's first take a look at the solutions the Company offer to solve your problems through comics.
Challenges faced by intrapreneurs
For in-house venture projects thinking about bringing new products to market, there is nothing more frustrating than having a great, original idea but not being able to realize it. Manufacturing consulting is the perfect service for those looking for a partner to turn their company's products into IoT or AI, or for those trying their hand at manufacturing for the first time.
In-house ventures often cannot secure sufficient budgets or human resources from existing business divisions, and a lack of resources is an obstacle. There may be cases where you don't know who to approach because you don't have a strong network of contacts, and in many cases, fundraising is difficult and project management is too much for you. I often hear stories of people who consulted with a major company, but were swayed by the company's logic and were unable to move forward smoothly, and ended up abandoning the project.
When venturing into new fields or technologies, there is a tendency to lack specialized knowledge and experience. There is also the risk of making mistakes in the design stage and completing a prototype that does not meet market demands. Monocon® can provide support for risk management and strategy planning for success, as well as specialized consulting and advice. We can also meet the needs of those who want to make their products look cool.
If you have an idea but can't put it into shape, contact Macnica Monocon® and we'll accompany you on the journey to making it a reality.
Do you have any of these problems?
・We are good at software, but if we had the hardware we could provide even better services...
・I want to materialize my new business idea and expand the scale of my business.
・I want to accelerate my business by creating hardware and systems using the latest technology.
・I would like to consider new contractors for board manufacturing and development.
Monocon®'s concept is to "give shape to your ideas." We can help customers who have no specialist knowledge or experience in electrical design to introduce electronics such as IoT/AI. We will accompany you from "technical verification of ideas" to "creating prototypes" and "providing mass-produced products."
We utilize Macnica 's unique "technology and intelligence" to support our customers in solving their problems and issues and increasing value through "Monocon®." Please feel free to contact us with any ideas, not just design and manufacturing.

1. infrastructure smart city
In recent years, IoT technology has begun to be introduced as a means to solve various social issues associated with urbanization. For example, high-precision sensing and predictive/predictive information using IoT technology and AI will continue to be required in the future, not only for the installation of surveillance cameras to prevent crime, but also for traffic monitoring to alleviate traffic congestion and environmental monitoring for natural disasters. I am.
2. retail
The introduction of IoT technology in the retail industry began with marketing such as inventory optimization, store management, and sales promotion, and in recent years, the introduction of product tags, customer flow management, cutting-edge devices such as smart shelves and high-precision cameras, and IoT technology have been introduced. We are beginning to evolve into a smart store. The retail industry, where tangible benefits and effects are clearly visible, may be the industry that will benefit most from the introduction of IoT technology and electronics.
3． Food/Eating out
IoT technology is promoting food innovation from all aspects and perspectives. For example, in order to improve food safety and quality, management systems have been developed that use various sensors and cameras to check the freshness of food and the presence of foreign substances. is provided. In addition, when eating out, the introduction of new communication (such as customer service) using tablet terminals not only improves the efficiency of restaurants but also improves customer satisfaction. We are making great progress.
Four. Logistics/warehousing
In the logistics industry, where the Internet has greatly evolved and transformed the traditional supply chain, new IoT technologies have been introduced to handle ever-changing warehouse management and delivery status visualization in order to meet ever-increasing needs. Logistics services that efficiently utilize real-time information have begun.
Five. Residential/Office
IoT technology has already become a familiar presence in our homes, such as smartphones and AI speakers. In addition, various functions and ideas that are useful in daily life are being created one after another, such as communication from a distance and energy saving. In addition, in the working environment, as a measure to increase productivity, for example, by managing and optimizing the use of equipment such as office conference rooms, lighting, and air conditioning, IoT technology can be used to visualize previously invisible conductors and achieve the highest efficiency. We create a good office environment.
6. Primary industry/Agriculture, forestry and fisheries
Smart agriculture in recent years has evolved primarily to improve labor productivity, yield, and quality. However, in the future, various data obtained through the introduction of IoT will be used to change the production site environment in real time to maintain uniform quality and yields, and will be used not only in agriculture but also in various other primary industries. The need for IoT technology and electronics is increasing in various fields.
