“I believe that one of my major roles is to create new engagement within management together with employees and stakeholders”

 I assumed the position of Representative Director and President of SAAF Holdings on April 30, 2025. I am the first person other than the founder to be appointed as president. Since participating in the management of ITbook Co., Ltd., the predecessor of our company, in 2013, I have had long experience in the management of various group companies, including NEXT Co., Ltd. (currently NXTech Co., Ltd.). 
 As a working professional, after working in the securities industries and overseas capital markets for a long time, I gained experience in fundraising, operations, and project investment before joining our group. Most recently, as president of NEXT, I have been in charge of the management reform since 2021, formulating and implementing cost structure improvements, including large-scale branch reorganization. I have gained the knowledge from spending a long time in a position allowing me to see multiple core segments of the group with future business growth opportunities, such as systems development and the human resources segment, and could see the matters from a perspective that looks at business in light of mid- to long-term changes in the business environment. I believe that those will be strengths for me as I steer the company as president in the future. In addition, as Executive Vice President of our company, I have been involved in the restructuring of our ground investigation -related business, consulting business and other businesses from the perspective of business value and enterprise value, as well as the consolidation and elimination of affiliated companies. I believe that my efforts in corporate growth and improving capital efficiency as a group will help me gain knowledge and perspectives for the ongoing restructuring of the group in the future.

 Our basic philosophy regarding management is that “our employees are the foundation of all growth,” and we strongly believe that we must steadily advance “the practice of sound management” and “employee peace of mind and hope.”  

 I believe that the driving force behind the growth of the SAAF Group is our employees. As we have continued our business for so long, we have always considered the job satisfaction and growth of our employees. Together with our employees, I want to create a corporate group that continues to solve social issues through our business activities. To achieve this goal, I believe that a major role of mine is to create new engagement between employees and management. 

 We will spare no effort in our endeavors, and we would like to thank all our stakeholders, including shareholders, investors, customers, business partners, and others who have supported us and shown us their support up until now. We appreciate your continued support.
