Next Chapter’s Purpose

Since the mid-1990s, internet spread rapidly and has been a significant impact on the global economy.

Currently, as technologies such as AI, blockchain, and extended reality become more widespread, and human life becomes more comfortable, we are entering an era where the value that each individual provides is becoming increasingly prominent.

In this context, Japan is currently lagging behind other countries in both globalization and digital transformation. If this trend continues, the gap is expected to widen, and we established Next Chapter with the desire to break the trend.

Our company’s purpose is to provide new value originating from overseas to the people of Japan from the customer’s point of view by identifying market trends and pursuing the essence of the market, free from preconceived notions.
