Zenport Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Fumiyuki Ota) is pleased to announce that CEO Fumiyuki Ota will be presenting at LOGI NEXT 25, scheduled for November 7, 2025.

This premier event brings together logistics and supply chain leaders from across Japan to discuss the latest industry trends and future outlook. Ota will participate in “Session 5: Startup Pitch,” where he will present ZENPORT’s data integration solutions, comparing domestic logistics challenges with global supply chain complexities to demonstrate comprehensive optimization strategies.

■ The Evolving Role of Modern CLOs

The role of logistics leaders has transformed dramatically from traditional functional managers focused primarily on cost reduction and operational efficiency. Today’s CLO (Chief Logistics Officer) or CSCO (Chief Supply Chain Officer) faces responsibilities that are incomparably more complex and strategic.

Modern CLOs are C-suite executives responsible for far more than simply moving goods. Their mandate spans end-to-end supply chain optimization, encompassing procurement, inventory management, production, warehousing, transportation, and final delivery to customers. They must leverage data analytics and cutting-edge technology to reduce lead times and enhance service levels.

Even more critical is their responsibility for risk management and resilience. CLOs must develop and execute strategies to address unexpected supply chain disruptions, including geopolitical risks, natural disasters, and regulatory changes. This includes building strong supplier relationships, securing alternative supply networks, and developing contingency plans to predict and minimize the impact of potential crises and excute the plan when any urgency happens.

■ Data Integration: The Key to Supply Chain Transformation

ZENPORT provides innovative solutions based on data integration to address the challenges facing modern CLOs. Ota’s presentation will cover:

1. Comparative Analysis: Domestic Logistics vs. Global Supply Chains

2. Breaking Down Data Silos for Comprehensive Optimization

3. ZENPORT Solution Case Studies

Event Background

India as a New Option in the Global Supply Chain Transition

Amid rising geopolitical risks and pandemic-driven supply chain reassessment, Japanese companies are rapidly diversifying their procurement and production bases. India has emerged as a key destination for the “China+1” strategy and one of the world’s largest consumer markets.

The Indian government’s “Make in India” strategy actively promotes manufacturing development and infrastructure improvement. With annual economic growth exceeding 7%, India is predicted to become the world’s third-largest economy in the 2030s, surpassing Japan. Many Japanese companies in automotive, electronics, and chemicals are strengthening their India operations, with logistics infrastructure developing rapidly.

However, India presents unique challenges including vast territory, complex tax systems, and diverse business practices. Understanding local logistics and building appropriate supply chain strategies is crucial for successful market entry.

Public-Private Partnership Supporting Japanese Companies

This event, co-hosted by LOGISTICS TODAY and the Embassy of India, aims to strengthen the logistics partnership between Japan and India. The conference provides comprehensive “India Logistics” insights from multiple perspectives, including government policies, Japanese company case studies, and practical logistics expertise.

～Automating Unstructured Data Structuring for Import Data Entry to ERP System～
September 18, 2025

Zenport Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Fumiyuki Ota) announces the launch of “ZenRead,” an AI-BPO service that combines AI technology with human expertise, as a new feature of ZENPORT, the comprehensive data hub that manages all global supply chain data.

This service automates the normalization process of converting import document data—including purchase orders, shipments, and products—into ERP data, which has long relied on manual work, providing an innovative solution to the critical industry challenge of structuring unstructured data in global supply chains.

■ Data Processing Challenges in Global Supply Chains

According to research by Gartner and other organizations, 80-90% of enterprise data is unstructured. In global supply chains particularly, the processing of vast amounts of unstructured data, including shipping documents, such as Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading, Certificate of Origin etc., conventionally been a manual task, using legacy methods for long.


This situation creates the following challenges:

  • Consumption of enormous human resources and time
  • Risk of human error
  • Limitations in data processing scalability
  • Difficulty in real-time data utilization

■ AI-BPO Service: An Innovative Approach Through Human-AI Collaboration

ZENPORT’s new AI-BPO Service, “ZenRead” provides a unique solution based on the “Human in the loop” philosophy to address the challenge of complete automation, which is difficult to achieve with AI-OCR alone when 100% accuracy is required for enterprise data structuring.

Key Features of The Service:

  • Automated Initial Processing with AI Technology: Advanced AI-OCR technology performs reading and initial structuring of export documents
  • Quality Assurance Through Human Expertise: Specialized staff verify and correct AI-processed data
  • Automatic Integration with Core Data: Structured data automatically integrates with core systems within ZENPORT
  • Continuous Learning and Improvement: AI accuracy continuously improves through feedback of processing results

■ Integrated Data Management Utilizing SmartGrid

This service leverages the previously released “SmartGrid” functionality as a hub, achieving further enhancement. SmartGrid, as ZENPORT’s core data visualization and operation platform, enables cross-organizational utilization of data processed by the AI-BPO Service, ZenRead.

Benefits realized through this integration:

  • Seamless data connectivity across processes and organizations
  • Real-time utilization of structured data
  • Accelerated decision-making and business operations
  • Promotion of data-driven business transformation

■ Foundation for Future AI Agent Development

ZENPORT positions the integration of ZenRead with SmartGrid as the foundation for future AI agent development. The automatic structuring of unstructured data represents the first step toward more advanced AI utilization, and we will continue to promote further automation and intelligence enhancement.
