NTN Corporation (hereafter, NTN) hereby announces that NTN has acquired the naming rights for “Kuwana City Hall” located in Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture, with the aim of contributing to the development of cultural activities in the region. Accordingly, from April 1, 2017 the current name “Kuwana City Hall” will be changed to include the NTN company name to “NTN City Hall.”

NTN was established in Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture in 1918, and has developed business in the region for approximately 100 years with the immense support and cooperation of the local community.
