I have been involved in the real estate business for nearly 40 years. There are some parts that have evolved with the times, but I feel that the industry as a whole still has a lot of potential to make a leap forward. In the future, we will use technology to further promote DX in real estate and adjacent areas, aiming for global expansion and sustainable growth.

The weakening presence of Japanese companies in the global economy has long been viewed as a problem, but we are confident that GA technologies is one of the few companies that can overcome this situation. In order to become a leading company in PropTech, which is gaining attention worldwide, we will support its growth from the perspective of personnel and organization.
