Ricoh invests in AI-native vector database startup Weaviate through the RICOH Innovation Fund

Ricoh named to CDP 2025 Supplier Engagement A List for sixth consecutive year

TOKYO, June 16, 2026 – Ricoh Company, Ltd. today announced that Ricoh has made an investment into Weaviate (Co-founder and CEO: Bob van Luijt, Co-founder and CTO: Etienne Dilocker), a developer of an AI-native vector database designed for unstructured data, headquartered in the Netherlands, through Ricoh’s corporate venture capital (CVC) fund, the RICOH Innovation Fund, on March 13, 2026. This investment advances Ricoh’s global strategy to support customers through digital and AI transformations*1, by exploring the potential of creating new solutions combining Ricoh’s data capture technology with Weaviate’s context-aware database.

Enterprises today hold vast amounts of unstructured data—including scanned documents, PDFs, email text, and handwritten notes. While these data assets contain valuable knowledge, they are often difficult to utilize effectively with traditional data management methods, creating a key barrier to enterprise AI adoption. As generative AI adoption accelerates, transforming unstructured data AI-ready*2 is becoming increasingly critical so that enterprises can leverage it in decision-making and business operations, ultimately improving productivity.

Weaviate offers the all-round AI database*3, easy to use with the features and integrations developers need. Built with an open-source foundation and focused on a first-class developer experience, it is the default for developers to build AI applications. By evolving beyond traditional retrieval systems and incorporating a memory layer, Weaviate enables AI agents to retain and utilize context over time. This helps overcome the limitations of stateless processing, allowing applications to access relevant information more effectively and generate more accurate, consistent, and context-aware responses. Beyond simply organizing unstructured data, Weaviate’s capabilities built on its vector database enable AI agents to learn from past interactions and access diverse enterprise information, supporting more advanced and long-term reasoning as well as improved decision-making.

Through this investment, Ricoh will support Weaviate’s efforts becoming the critical infrastructure for the agentic shift and explore opportunities to combine Ricoh’s data capture technologies with Weaviate’s context-aware database. This combination is expected to unlock the value of unstructured data that has not been fully utilized until now and lead to the creation of new solutions that enable cross-functional utilization of diverse information accumulated within the enterprise.

Eiji Suzuki, General Manager, Corporate Planning Center, Corporate Planning Division, Ricoh Company, Ltd. stated, “Built on open technology and a strong community, Weaviate has pursued a data foundation that enables AI to understand and leverage information in context. Through these efforts, the company has helped shape a reliable approach to data utilization in the era of generative AI. Ricoh shares this vision. We are delighted to embark on this partnership and look forward to creating value together through our collaboration. Together, we are committed to advancing this vision further and unlocking new value for our customers. Through this partnership, we will translate the potential of generative AI into practical business applications and more informed decision-making.”

Bob van Luijt, Co-founder and CEO, Weaviate added, “Weaviate’s open-source software is already proving its value in Japan, as the growth we’re seeing in adoption and community engagement is unmistakable. We’re excited to partner with Ricoh, who recognizes that momentum and shares our conviction that this ecosystem is just getting started. This funding isn’t just capital; It’s fuel to accelerate what the community is already building. This partnership signifies a major milestone in our global expansion strategy, specifically tailored to meet the sophisticated demands of the Japanese market. As we scale our operations, we remain committed to fostering a robust developer network and driving innovation that resonates across the entire technological landscape of the region.”

Ricoh established the RICOH Innovation Fund in November 2023 to support the growth of B2B startups and accelerate its transformation into a digital services company. Through open innovation and collaboration with partners, Ricoh supports people's creativity and contributes to a sustainable society by generating innovation and continuously transforming people's work

Ricoh Launches AV Managed Services to Optimize Hybrid Collaboration Spaces

Weston, Florida, May 2026. With the growth of hybrid work, organizations face a new operational challenge: ensuring that their collaboration spaces function continuously, securely, and without interruptions. Today, an unavailable meeting room, a video call with failures, or an audiovisual system without support can delay decisions, affect the customer experience, and generate productivity losses.

This need is also reflected in the growth of the professional audiovisual market. According to the AVIXA 2025 IOTA forecast, global revenues in the sector will grow from US$332 billion in 2025 to US$402 billion in 2030, driven by demand for better collaborative experiences, cloud technologies, remote management, and smart workplace solutions.

In this context, Ricoh LATAM announced the launch of Ricoh AV Managed Services, a managed services solution for audiovisual rooms designed to keep collaboration technology operational, reduce technical failures, and improve the hybrid meeting experience.

The service is part of Ricoh’s managed solutions portfolio and combines remote monitoring, on-site support, proactive management, technical assistance, and analytics so that companies can manage their rooms with greater visibility and response capacity.

“Each interruption in a hybrid meeting can delay decisions, affect the customer experience, or cause productivity loss. With Ricoh AV Managed Services, we seek to provide companies with more reliable, managed spaces, prepared to collaborate without friction,” stated Jesus Santiago Perez, Vice President of Communication Services, Ricoh LATAM.

Always-On Audiovisual Technology

Ricoh AV Managed Services enables organizations to supervise, test, diagnose, and repair audiovisual and video conferencing systems, even when they were installed by other integrators. Its approach is oriented toward preventing incidents, resolving failures with greater agility, and ensuring a consistent experience in small and medium rooms, auditoriums, and other corporate spaces.

The solution can operate remotely or on-site, depending on each organization’s needs. It also incorporates analytics tools that provide visibility into system performance, room usage, device status, support requests, and other key indicators for decision-making.

Its main capabilities include:

Monitoring and response: supervision of videoconferencing parameters, connectivity, energy consumption, software updates, and device status.
Remote and on-site support: technical assistance to resolve incidents, reduce downtime, and maintain the operation of collaboration spaces.
Proactive management: testing, diagnostics, and follow-up to ensure rooms are ready at the start of the workday.
Space analytics: visibility into room usage, system performance, asset inventory, and device behavior.
Specialized personnel: technicians trained to support complex conferencing technologies and accompany user adoption.

A Step Toward Smart Workplaces

The evolution of hybrid models has led companies to seek more connected, measurable, and easy-to-operate spaces. In this scenario, managed audiovisual technology services allow organizations to reduce the burden on internal IT teams, improve meeting continuity, and offer a simpler experience for users.

With Ricoh AV Managed Services, Ricoh reinforces its vision of accompanying organizations in building smart workplaces, where technology, managed services, and the human experience integrate to create more productive, connected environments prepared for new collaboration dynamics.

Ricoh was also selected by CDP for the 2025 A List in both Climate Change and Water Security in recognition of its high level of transparency and performance in environmental disclosure in those two fields.

Mikako Suzuki, chief sustainability and risk management officer at Ricoh Company, Ltd., said, “We are honored to have received the highest rating in CDP’s Supplier Engagement Assessment for the sixth consecutive year. This recognition reflects our ongoing collaboration with suppliers who have worked with us toward the shared goal of realizing a decarbonized society, and we sincerely appreciate their support. It is also a testament to our efforts to advance decarbonization across the supply chain through energy-efficient products and solutions, supplier briefing sessions and requests that key suppliers set medium- to long-term greenhouse gas reduction targets. We will continue to strengthen collaboration and accelerate climate action across the entire value chain.”

Climate change is one of the most important social issues facing the global community. Ricoh will continue to promote energy conservation and the active use of renewable energy in its own operations while also encouraging business partners and customers to help build a decarbonized society across the entire value chain.

In this new edition, the Summit welcomed clients, business partners, employees, and experts. It also marked the official launch of Ricoh LATAM’s new brand promise: creating intelligent workplaces that transform business. This evolution reflects how the company is moving toward the future of work by integrating not only its portfolio, but also spaces, people, processes, and technology into one ecosystem.

“Today, organizations do not need more isolated tools, but environments where technology, processes, and people work as an intelligent system. Ricoh Summit 2026 is the space where we share that vision through real and actionable experiences and use cases for our customers in Latin America,” said Diego Imperio, President and CEO of Ricoh LATAM.

Throughout the event, attendees were able to experience firsthand what an intelligent workplace entails, and learn about the products and technological solutions offered by the leading brands that participated in the summit as key partners. Crestron and Inepro participated as strategic partners, the highest sponsorship tier, thereby reaffirming their commitment to innovation and workplace transformation.

In addition, guests were treated to a preview of Ricoh’s latest releases across its various product lines:

Technology Experience:

Managed Services, as enablers of efficiency and operational continuity, allowing businesses to focus on strategy and innovation.

Why Chile?

Ricoh Summit 2026 established itself as a high-level gathering for C- and D-level executives in Latin America: CEOs, CIOs, CTOs, IT directors, digital transformation leaders, finance and HR executives, and operations leaders from sectors such as financial services, manufacturing, logistics, education, and healthcare, among others. This reflects the event’s purpose of aligning technology decisions with business strategy and workplace experience.

Chile was chosen as the host country because of its growing role as a hub for digital and financial services in the region, where modernization projects in banking, education, and logistics supported by Ricoh and its technology partners converge.

With this edition, the company reinforced a clear message for the region: the future of work does not depend solely on adopting new technologies, but on integrating them strategically with people.

Ricoh raises decarbonization targets under new ESG strategy in the latest mid-term strategy

TOKYO, April 8, 2026 – Ricoh today announced revision of its materialities and ESG targets based on the new ESG strategy under its new mid-term strategy launched in fiscal 2026. As the need for climate action grows more urgent worldwide, Ricoh will accelerate efforts to help realize a decarbonized society by raising its greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets and renewable energy adoption target for fiscal 2030.

Ricoh Group raised its fiscal 2030 target for reducing Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions from 63% to 75%, compared with fiscal 2015 levels. The company has also strengthened its long-term target framework. Replacing its previous combined target of a 90% reduction across Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions by fiscal 2050, Ricoh has established separate targets of a 90% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by fiscal 2040 and a 90% reduction in Scope 3 emissions by fiscal 2050. These targets have been validated under the Science Based Targets initiative’s Net-Zero Standard, which aligns corporate emissions reduction targets with climate science.

Ricoh also raised its fiscal 2030 renewable energy adoption target from 55% to 85%. In Japan, the company will promote responsible renewable energy procurement that does not cause environmental damage or apprehension in local communities, in line with domestic market conditions. As part of this effort, Ricoh is revising its proprietary comprehensive renewable energy evaluation system to further strengthen responsible renewable energy procurement. Introduced in 2021, the system evaluates renewable electricity sources not only on price but also on factors such as additionality that supports new power development, lower environmental impact and whether power plants are financed by local communities. In this upcoming revision, Ricoh plans to incorporate considerations such as biodiversity, human rights and proper land use as part of its broader effort to identify the factors that should be taken into account in realizing a sustainable society. The final framework will be determined based on advice from external subject matter experts including academia and environmental conservation organizations.

Ricoh Group became the first Japanese company to join RE100 in April 2017. Since then, the company has worked to increase both the use and quality of renewable energy by expanding the adoption of additional renewable energy sources, including onsite physical power purchase agreements that make effective use of space at its own facilities and offsite virtual power purchase agreements in Japan. Under its new midterm management plan, Ricoh will not only raise its decarbonization targets but also ensure they are firmly linked to its global business operations.

La Imprenta Ya Drives Its Productive Evolution with the RICOH Pro C9500

Case Study: La Imprenta Ya

_{^{Prepared by Sol Rodriguez, Ricoh Argentina}}

History and Context

Since its inception in 2000 as a single-person venture, La Imprenta Ya has maintained a clear vision: to deliver quality graphic solutions that meet the evolving needs of its clients. What began with basic equipment and a lean structure evolved steadily through a consistent commitment to innovation, technology adoption, and service development.

Its ability to adapt to new trends in the graphic market has established it as a reference point in digital printing, delivering high-quality work with speed and flexibility.

With a philosophy centered on continuous improvement, La Imprenta Ya continued investing in technology to optimize its processes, expand its productive capabilities, and respond efficiently to its clients' growing demands,and that's where their path intersected with Ricoh.

Business Challenge

The transformation of the graphic market has driven growing demand for customized work, short runs, and increasingly tight delivery schedules. In this context, La Imprenta Ya identified the need to strengthen its productive capacity through technology that would improve printing costs while maintaining the high quality standards that characterize its work.

Beyond addressing current operational needs, the investment was part of a broader transformation strategy focused on expanding the company's capabilities and continuing to evolve as a graphic services provider.

"Today at La Imprenta Ya, we are building on a strong brand message premised on being a services company. In this way, this investment is part of that transformation process seeking to strengthen the company's productive capacity and expand its participation in new markets and business segments," affirms Marianela Bravo, CEO & Founder de La Imprenta Ya.

One of the key challenges was ensuring precise registration and excellent image quality for editorial production, particularly in book printing, where consistency and accuracy are critical factors in the final result.

Additionally, the company sought to incorporate a versatile solution that would support its operational growth and enable it to expand its graphic application offerings without compromising process efficiency.

From a productive capability perspective, the new technology significantly expanded application possibilities, allowing work with higher-weight and higher-quality materials, printing in larger formats, and offering greater versatility for different types of projects. At the same time, color stability, registration precision, and print consistency ensured more reliable results with more accurate and uniform colors in every job produced.

These advances align with the company's growth strategy and strengthen its ability to deliver increasingly competitive service.

"The adoption of the RICOH Pro C9500 represents an important step within our growth strategy. We were looking for a solution that would allow us to increase productivity, optimize costs, and maintain the quality standards our clients expect from us. The implementation experience with the Ricoh team was very positive, and we are convinced that this technology will enable us to continue supporting the development of new projects with greater efficiency and flexibility," oncluded Marianela Bravo.
