Expanding LLM services on the ABEJA Platform and enterprise deployment

「During the interim accounting period, our main initiative was the NEDO project under the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's GENIAC framework, titled "Research and Development on Foundation Models with Long-Context Capabilities and the Construction of AI Agents" (selected in July 2025 and completed in February 2026).」

「During the fiscal year, we pursued enterprise projects and public-sector projects in parallel and worked to accelerate social implementation. In research and development, we built a high-accuracy compact LLM under the NEDO framework and confirmed a breakthrough in the cost-to-accuracy trade-off.」

「We continued to promote LLM-related activities as a focus area during the interim accounting period. Under NEDO's "Development of Competitive Generative AI Foundation Models (Subsidy)" project, selected in October 2024, we are conducting research and development on "high-performance, compact models with reduced parameter counts," drawing on knowledge gained from the previously selected project. The project is progressing smoothly, with results including the development of a 32B compact model that has outperformed GPT-4 on multiple general-purpose language-performance benchmarks. We also focused on developing a Japanese-language medical LLM, in which we are participating as a joint research and development institution. In addition, we are making steady progress toward the social implementation of LLMs by creating LLM use cases with enterprise companies and implementing the compact model described above in edge environments to improve usability.」

「We continued to focus on LLM-related activities. As an NEDO project, we conducted research and development on "Japanese-language LLMs and related technologies (RAG and agents)" from February through August 2024 following its selection (the "NEDO Phase 1 Project"). From the next fiscal year onward, LLM-related activities will remain a focus area, and we will continue to promote research and development in addition to providing services to customer companies.」

「Since its selection in February 2024, we have been conducting research and development on Japanese-language LLMs and related technologies, including RAG and agents, as part of an NEDO project. We are currently working to improve the accuracy of the foundation model and have also undergone GENIAC (Generative AI Accelerator Challenge) performance evaluations, with progress proceeding smoothly. As the project is scheduled to reach a milestone in August this year, we plan to release the models and other outputs after its completion.」

「We also applied for the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO)'s project, "Post-5G Information and Communications Systems Infrastructure Enhancement Research and Development Project / Development of Post-5G Information and Communications Systems." Effective 2 February 2024, our proposal, "A General-Purpose LLM as the Basis for Specialized Models for the Social Implementation of LLMs," was selected.」

「We are also proceeding with the deployment of our proprietary large language model, the ABEJA LLM Series, on ABEJA Platform.」

「During the third-quarter accounting period, we expanded the large language model services on ABEJA Platform. Our LLMs primarily target enterprises, and we are advancing their deployment toward implementation and operation.」
