During the recent visit to Japan by the Vice Chancellor of Lanka Nippon BizTech Institute (LNBTI), Prof. Ananda Kumara, a special discussion session was held with Alto Co., Ltd., a leading and emerging IT company based in Nagoya, Japan.
The discussion was joined by Mr. Kato, Chief Executive Officer of Alto Co., Ltd., and focused on exploring future collaboration opportunities between Alto Co., Ltd. and LNBTI, particularly in relation to internships and IT job opportunities for LNBTI graduates in the Central Japan region.
Alto Co., Ltd. is recognized as an innovative IT company specializing in web solutions, digital content, system development, web marketing, online broadcasting support, and AI-based business solutions. The company provides a wide range of services, including corporate website development, e-commerce site development, recruitment website development, branding, SEO, SNS marketing, web advertising, portal site development and operation, SaaS solutions, Microsoft 365 support, and generative AI implementation support, including ChatGPT training for corporate clients.
The fruitful discussion highlighted the growing demand for skilled IT professionals in Japan, especially in the Central Japan area. With LNBTI’s unique academic model that combines IT education, Japanese language training, and professional development, it is expected that LNBTI graduates will be able to contribute positively to addressing skill shortages in Japan’s IT sector.
Both parties expressed interest in further exploring possible pathways for LNBTI students and graduates to gain practical industry exposure through internships and future employment opportunities at Alto Co., Ltd.
As a further step in strengthening this relationship, Mr. Kato is planning to visit LNBTI in the near future. His visit is expected to open new opportunities for academic-industry collaboration and create stronger links between LNBTI and the Japanese IT industry.
This discussion marks another important step in LNBTI’s mission to prepare Japan-ready IT professionals and build meaningful connections with Japanese companies that are seeking talented, disciplined, and globally competent graduates.
