OSAKA SEALING PRINTING CO., LTD. (Headquarters: Tennoji-ku, Osaka City, President: Matsuguchi Tadashi), a member of the OSP Group, will co-host the "3rd Okashina Summer School" event and provide material support, which will be held in various locations in Aichi Prefecture from Monday, July 21st to Sunday, August 31st, 2025.
This event is sponsored by Kasugai Seika Co., Ltd. (Kasugai City, Aichi Prefecture, President: Daisuke Kasugai, hereafter referred to as Kasugai Seika), and is a combination of the company's business of "Okashi" (sweets) and "Okashii" (funny), which means interesting or intriguing. This year marks the third time the event has been held, and 46 companies have jointly planned 27 "Okashii" learning events, including talk sessions, workshops, and experience classes, that will provide exciting learning experiences for both adults and children. Our company supports the initiative to create learning opportunities, and will sponsor stickers as a tool to support events with other companies and awareness-raising activities.
■ Supporting education and local revitalization
The OSP Group is engaged in "sustainable management," which aims to realize a sustainable society by responding to various changes in the social environment and balancing social issue resolution with business activities. Aiming for harmony between the economy, society, and the environment through business activities, we have set four policies regarding sustainability: the environment, customers, contribution to society and the community, and human resource development and activity. As one of these, "contribution to society and the community," we have supported the activities of local governments and schools. This time, the themes of the Strange Summer School, "education" and "regional revitalization," have an affinity with the SDGs that our company advocates, which led to co-hosting the event and donating stickers.
■Comment from Genki Watanabe, person in charge
Since our founding, we have been single-mindedly producing products that are closely related to the lives of consumers, such as stickers, labels, and packages. When we seriously think about "strange" things, we want to challenge ourselves to see what we can do. By co-hosting events with many companies, we will be deeply involved in planning and running them, and we look forward to learning and laughing together.

■What is collaboration?
27 events were created by companies and individuals from all different industries and scales who came together with the passion to "do something interesting!" and discussed "this and that". The event is characterized by the fact that it is an interesting and educational experience for both children and adults.
It is extremely difficult to create something that has never been done before, from scratch, with people who have never done it before. However, people who share the pain of birth become "partners" who work together to achieve something, and a strong bond is born. This is the true joy of collaboration.
