This forms part of Konica Minolta’s vigorous drive to transform its core business from hardware to value-added services, which help customers innovate and grow their businesses.

The company plans to establish BICs in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, China and Japan. BICs will collaborate closely with a range of partners such as research institutes to analyze customer needs and research technical trends and service requirements in each regional market.

The first BIC - for the Asia Pacific region - has been opened in Singapore. It will initially focus on development of cloud-based service offerings.
