On March 9, 2012 GISFI signed an MOU with Yokosuka Research Park (YRP-http://www.yrp.co.jp), Japan. YRP is the largest industrial park in Japan and houses the research and development centers of many companies (such as NTT DoCoMo) as well as leading foreign and domestic research institutions (including NICT, KDDI R & D Laboratories, etc.) The MOU is a further step in the collaboration of GISFI with industries and standardisation organisations in Japan
