If you're ambitious, don't hesitate to jump in! The future will surely reward your efforts. As a rare "serial entrepreneur" in Japan who has launched a series of information communication venture companies such as Daini-Denden (now KDDI), eAccess, and EMOBILE, I invite you to break free from an ordinary life and join me in pursuing a path that leads to extraordinary progress.
