FM Karuizawa’s 25th Anniversary
In August 2026, FM Karuizawa celebrated its 25th anniversary. Since becoming a subsidiary of Oak Capital (now UNIVA Oak Holdings) in December 2012, the station has been working to establish a new broadcasting model that integrates community-based FM radio with the internet. Starting with the economic program “Tadashi Ota’s Economy & Finance: ‘Free-Wheeling,’” which debuted in 2014, the station has also ventured into digital platforms such as YouTube and podcasts, produced nationwide network programs, and launched the “Kids Media Lab” to create shows with local children. In 2025, the station carried out a major collaborative project with Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza and continues to grow as a media outlet connecting the local community with the nation. Marking this 25th anniversary, we will move forward with new challenges aimed at achieving even greater growth.

The newly opened business center will be operated as a hub that our distributors can freely utilize, with the aim of expanding the UNP fan base. Going forward, we will actively support business activities to foster the emergence of many top distributors from Hanoi as well.
