At Director meeting held today, November 15 (Thursday), the Company resolved to appoint Shinpei Noguchi as Executive Officer.

Noguchi has a strong track record in the development of new services in the leasing area and product sales for corporations at ITANDI, Inc. With the appointment of this new director, we will focus on realizing the next-generation rental service “Rental 3.0 (*)” with an eye on the credit economy.

The real estate industry is an industry that often creates disadvantages for consumers due to the convenience of the contractor. Even in today's world where the Internet has spread, consumers cannot know the latest information and correct information about properties. What I have learned through my experience at ITANDI is the very structure of the real estate industry that creates such a situation. Even if technology advances remarkably, this structure will not improve unless real estate companies make use of it. And the high-level technology provided by many IT companies has not been able to take advantage of that technology. In the real estate industry, it is necessary to provide services that are as simple and effective as possible when they are really needed.

I think that GA technologies Co., Ltd. and ITANDI are the few companies that can do such things because they are real estate agents. I would like to take advantage of my experience of failure and success to change the common sense of the real estate industry with a solid strategy.
