data –

KAWASAKI, Japan, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Toshiba Corporation today announced
the launch of the GridDB Startup Program, a strategic initiative that will empower
startups in building and scaling real-time industrial solutions on GridDB Cloud,
Toshiba’s distributed time-series database for Big Data and IoT systems. Applications
are open [here](https://www.global.toshiba/ww/products-solutions/ai-iot/griddb/griddb_startup_program.html)
from June 24, 2026.

In a business world driven by constantly growing flows of information, identifying
and extracting value requires systems that can accurately and reliably analyze massive
volumes of data in real time with no disruption to operations. GridDB, Toshiba’s
distributed time‑series database, addresses these challenges by delivering strengths
in reliability, low latency, and horizontal scalability.

The launch of GridDB Startup Program is part of Toshiba’s broader effort to foster
long-term partnerships with startups that advance co-development of solutions and
bring new ideas to life. The program aims to combine Toshiba’s expertise in data
infrastructure with the creativity and agility of startups in generating new use
cases and technology breakthroughs in IoT, AI and machine learning, smart infrastructure,
healthcare, finance, real-time analytics, and other areas.

The program provides participants with essential technology, reduces barriers to
innovation, and enables collaborative experimentation. Access to GridDB Cloud and
GridDB’s technical expertise gives the participants ability to concentrate solely
on product development rather than infrastructure management, and to rapidly prototype,
validate, and scale concepts. The program also delivers resources and incentives
to foster early-stage growth, supporting startups in accelerating time-to-market
and taking solutions to the global level.

**Key Incentives of the GridDB Startup Program**:

 ◦ Complimentary access to GridDB Cloud
 ◦ Dedicated technical support from GridDB’s experts
 ◦ Opportunities for joint marketing and promotional activities with Toshiba’s GridDB
   team
 ◦ Potential connection with Toshiba Corporate Venture Capital
