Highreso delivers on-demand access to the latest GPUs via its GPUSOROBAN cloud, letting enterprises and research institutions spin up AI-ready compute from as little as ¥50 per hour. The company lowers operating costs by locating data centers in regional areas, leveraging outside-air cooling, and renovating unused facilities such as closed schools. Since opening its first GPU-dedicated data center in Ishikawa in 2019, Highreso has added a site in Takamatsu (opened December 2024) and plans new facilities in Saga (August 2025) and Ayagawa, Kagawa (2026). The firm earned NVIDIA’s “Best CSP Partner of the Year” award in 2022 and was certified under Japan’s METI Cloud Program in April 2024. Founded in December 2007 by CEO Yoshiyuki Shikura, Highreso is now channeling fresh capital into expanding AI infrastructure to capture domestic and broader Asian demand. The company previously secured roughly ¥1.2 billion in financing in October 2024, although no revenue or user figures were disclosed in the article.
