Core offering

SC Digital Media provides consulting and implementation services for marketing digital transformation (Marketing DX) and AI transformation (AIX) to enterprise and mid-market clients in Japan. The firm combines strategy formulation, platform implementation (marketing automation, CDP, CX, analytics), creative production including video content, and operational support to drive customer experience improvement and revenue growth. Its offerings are delivered under the umbrella of the Sumitomo Corporation Group's network and field expertise.

Product overview

SC Digital operates a platform-plus-modules services model centered on two pillars: Marketing DX and AI Transformation (AIX). The core Marketing DX service provides integrated strategy, data, and digital execution, while the AIX service delivers AI-driven business process redesign. Individual modules — including MA implementation (HubSpot for B2B and B2C), CDP/data platform (Treasure Data), CX design, AI engineering, generative AI analytics, video production (BuyMo), social media, advanced creative, and digital advertising — are offered both independently and as integrated components within the core platforms. The newly launched Generative AI Training Program (生成AI研修プログラム, May 2026) supports enterprise-wide AI upskilling. All services are underpinned by Sumitomo Corporation Group's operational expertise and a network spanning 1,000+ client companies.
