East Asia
My mission is to connect individuals through their shared missions and to continuously create a place that shapes a better future. With this goal in mind, I established an organization named Hive Japan. Hive Japan's aim is to build a community where motivated young people can inspire each other through their shared missions.
By investing money into the Hive Japan ecosystem and providing wisdom, I believe that this community will eventually nurture new industry leaders in Japan's economy and political leaders who will guide people towards a better future. To achieve this, I am committed to creating the premier community in Japan.
