Recently, the company has taken its technology to the next level by optimizing process efficiency through the enhancement of its proprietary SaaS-based workflow.

Diiver also showcased its technology on the global stage. In fact, it has laid the foundation for global expansion by being selected as one of five companies at ‘COMEUP 2025 STARS Japan’, which recorded 28:1 competition rates
