(hereinafter &#8220;Aucnet&#8221;), based in <span class=\"xn-location\">Tokyo, Japan<\/span>, announced that it has joined the Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative (hereinafter &#8220;MOBI&#8221;) headquartered in <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles<\/span> in the U.S. state of <span class=\"xn-location\">California<\/span>, a global nonprofit consortium that develops blockchain-based technologies and standards for next-generation mobility. Through its participation in MOBI, Aucnet seeks to contribute to a sustainable society by developing circular distribution platforms for electric vehicles (EVs) and their batteries.<\/p>\n<p>Aucnet launched the world&#8217;s first real-time virtual used-car auction in 1985. Based on its philosophy of &#8220;Shaping the Future of Commerce,&#8221; Aucnet has expanded beyond used cars to create circular distribution platforms for a wide variety of industries, including digital products, motorcycles, luxury brand items, flowers, and medical equipment. To enable remote transactions with peace of mind, Aucnet has developed industry-leading de facto standard inspection and grading systems for each of its product lines. In the automobile business, Aucnet inspects and grades more than one million used cars per year through its subsidiary AIS Inc., which was established with investments from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Mazda and Subaru.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2018, MOBI is a global nonprofit alliance of more than 100 companies and organizations, including the world&#8217;s largest vehicle manufacturers, along with startups, NGOs, transit agencies, insurers, toll road providers, smart city leaders, and technology companies. MOBI&#8217;s mission is to create standards and build the digital infrastructure for connected vehicles and IoT commerce in order to accelerate the adoption of blockchain\/DLT and make transportation more efficient, equitable, decentralized, and sustainable.<\/p>\n<p>2021 saw an unprecedented shift towards EVs in the new vehicle market, with numerous vehicle manufacturers and governments having committed to increase the uptake of EVs. This trend is expected to continue in the coming years and to flow on to the used-vehicle market in the near future. MOBI provides Aucnet the opportunity to collaborate with leading organizations around the world to be at the forefront of the development of inspection technologies and circular distribution platforms for EVs and their batteries. Aucnet&#8217;s systems will facilitate transparent transactions of used EVs and enable the efficient reuse of lithium-ion batteries, thereby contributing to the achievement of the U.N.-led Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; MOBI overview<br \/>Organization name: Mobility Open Blockchain Initiative<br \/>Established: <span class=\"xn-chron\">May 2, 2018<\/span><br \/>Headquarters: <span class=\"xn-location\">Los Angeles, California<\/span>, USA<br \/>Representatives: <span class=\"xn-person\">Chris Ballinger<\/span>, Tram Vo<br \/>URL: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/dlt.mobi\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/dlt.mobi\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Aucnet profile <br \/>Company name: Aucnet Inc.<br \/>Headquarters: 2-5-8 Kita-Aoyama, Minato-ku, <span class=\"xn-location\">Tokyo<\/span> 107-8349, <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span><br \/>Representatives: <span class=\"xn-person\">Kiyotaka Fujisaki<\/span>, Chairman and CEO; <span class=\"xn-person\">Shinichiro Fujisaki<\/span>, President and COO<br \/>Established: <span class=\"xn-chron\">June 29, 1985<\/span><br \/>Capital: <span class=\"xn-money\">1,765 million yen<\/span> (as of <span class=\"xn-chron\">December 31, 2020<\/span>)<br \/>Consolidated sales: <span class=\"xn-money\">24,078 million yen<\/span> (fiscal year ending <span class=\"xn-chron\">December 2020<\/span>)<br \/>Number of consolidated employees: 821 (as of <span class=\"xn-chron\">December 31, 2020<\/span>)<br \/>Business overview: Information-based distribution support service businesses such as hosting and operating auctions using the Internet<br \/>Stock information: First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (Securities Code: 3964)<\/p>\n<p>URL: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aucnet.co.jp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.aucnet.co.jp\/<\/a><br \/>SDGs policy: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.aucnet.co.jp\/SDGs\/en\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.aucnet.co.jp\/SDGs\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"PURL\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Cision\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" alt=\"Cision\" src=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/img\/favicon.png?sn=HK38108&amp;sd=2022-01-21\"> View original content:<a id=\"PRNURL\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/aucnet-joins-global-mobility-blockchain-standardization-consortium-mobi-301465495.html\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/aucnet-joins-global-mobility-blockchain-standardization-consortium-mobi-301465495.html<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Source: Aucnet Inc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TOKYO, Jan. 21, 2022 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212;&nbsp;Aucnet Inc.
