Brain Sleep Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Atsushi Hirota; hereafter "Brain Sleep") is developing content projects to raise awareness of the importance of improving sleep quality for enhanced daytime performance. Through this project, we will publish interview content featuring individuals who are active in various fields, such as sports and business, discussing their approaches to daily sleep, and also run transit advertisements. By broadly and multifacetedly disseminating and advocating that "sleep is about quality, not just duration" and "the changes that can be gained by prioritizing high-quality sleep," we aim to support future performance improvement and the expansion of possibilities. Background of the Initiative Brain Sleep's "Sleep Deviation Value® Survey" for FY2025*, conducted among 10,000 employed individuals, revealed that the average sleep duration was 6 hours and 50 minutes, a result on par with 2024, which was the longest in the past five years of surveys. However, this sleep duration is still 98 minutes shorter than the average sleep duration of 8 hours and 28 minutes for OECD member countries announced in 2021, remaining at the lowest level in the world. It is not easy to extend sleep duration in Japan, and we believe it is crucial to improve its quality. Furthermore, Brain Sleep advocates for "sleep that rests the brain," asserting that sleep does not merely provide physical rest but also enhances daytime performance. We have previously implemented measures to raise awareness of the importance of sleep quality. Last year, our project, including transit advertisements themed "Common Experiences from Burning the Midnight Oil" directed at "everyone who battles by sacrificing sleep," received significant feedback. Through this initiative, we aim to reach more people with the importance of sleep quality, using interviews with individuals who have actually improved their sleep quality using Brain Sleep products and experienced enhanced performance in work and private life, as well as transit advertisements with the message "Never let your passion sleep." * Sleep Deviation Value® Survey 2025 (n=10,000) https://brain-sleep.com/pages/research2025 Initiative Details 1.
