Tokyo, Japan, June 16th, 2020 – Final Aim, Inc. (Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, CEO Masafumi Asakura, and CDO Yasuhide Yokoi), is proud to announce that the company has partnered with BionicM (Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, CEO Sun Xiaojun).

Our company mission is to support a zero-to-one step with technology for new business category creation and job opportunity generation following to it.
Since our foundation in December 2019, our global challenge has expanded from Japan to Singapore, Indonesia and to Africa in autonomous mobilities, robotics and digital manufacturing where we enable a zero-to-one for startups, new business development departments in large corporations and research labs in universities.

BionicM has been bringing new innovation to mobility by using technology that blends robotic technology with the human body.
As a startup from the University of Tokyo, the company has been applying cutting-edge technology based on robotics engineering research to solve the problems of conventional prosthetic legs and create small, lightweight, high-performance prosthetic legs that realize natural movement.
Furthermore, BionicM aims not only to develop artificial legs, but also to create technologies and devices that bring power to the mobility of healthy people.

BionicM has selected Final Aim as a business alliance partner from the viewpoint of global business development and marketing with a view to designing, prototyping, and mass production in the manufacturing industry from the perspective of global expansion.

The partnership aims to develop the BionicM’s business growth stage to a global scale, by blending Final Aim’s proven hands-on capability of zero-to-one startup support in the hardware design and manufacturing industry.
