OKI has officially partnered with FPT Corporation, leveraging its subsidiary FPT Japan to establish a strategic capital alliance involving partial ownership of OKI’s two software development subsidiaries in China.
This collaboration aims to bolster software development capacities and facilitate expansive growth initiatives for both entities. Effective April 1, 2025, Oki Data Dalian Co., Ltd. and OKI Software Technology Co., Ltd. will be rebranded to FPT OKI Dalian Limited Liability Company and FPT OKI Changzhou Limited Liability Company, respectively.
Under this new agreement, FPT Japan will hold a 65% equity stake, while OKI will retain 35%. This initiative aligns with OKI’s business Plan 2025. This would integrate FPT’s rich global outreach and high tech capabilities with OKI’s deep industrial experience in social infrastructure. As such, this partnership would aim to offer highly sophisticated software products tailored to the international market, which will start focusing on Japan, China, and the ASEAN region. The joint ventures will focus on innovative, high-efficiency business models that benefit from FPT’s AI-enhanced ecosystem, promoting business continuity, risk management, and sustainable growth.
“2024 will be a pivotal year for FPT in the Japanese market, catalyzed by substantial contracts, strategic investments, and new office openings. Our alliance with OKI represents a mutual dedication to harnessing technology as a catalyst for transformative business solutions and societal progress,” stated Do Van Khac, SEVP of FPT Software and CEO of FPT Japan, FPT Corporation.
