SBT holds general meeting of shareholders via live streaming via Microsoft Teams

SB Technology Corp. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, President ＆ CEO: Shinichi Ata, hereafter SBT) announced the prevention of the spread of the new coronavirus infection at the 32nd Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 26, 2020. In response to this, we will conduct live streaming using "Microsoft Teams", a hub for team collaboration in "Microsoft 365". We accept requests for the exercise of voting rights and questions at the General Meeting of Shareholders in advance, and on the day of the General Meeting of Shareholders, anyone will be able to view it due to the "participatory" nature of the hybrid virtual General Meeting of Shareholders.

■ Background of the event

In response to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, SBT conducted a live broadcast using Microsoft Teams at its financial results briefing held on April 27, 2020, the first in Japan.
The general meeting of shareholders will continue to be held via live streaming with all executives, including the chairperson, participating online, with the safety of shareholders as the top priority, and based on operational policies that are conscious of reducing the size, shortening the time, and avoiding close contact. I decided to do it.

In addition to live streaming, as an alternative to participating in resolutions and asking questions at the general meeting of shareholders, we accept advance voting rights and questions/opinions in writing or online.
In addition, we will conduct a viewing test to check in advance whether you can view live streaming using Microsoft Teams in your current environment. We will support your participation by preparing easy-to-understand manuals so that you will not be unable to watch the meeting on the day of the general meeting of shareholders.
