When we first established our company, we were primarily involved in the import and retail business as a bridge between New York and Japan, as well as the management of an English conversation school.Currently, we have expanded into a company that handles a wide range of real estate, M&A, and management consulting in Japan and overseas, leveraging our wide network of contacts. .
Shortly after starting her business, she was recognized by Yukio Funai and received direct support and guidance. In September 2002, she was selected as one of Japan's top 20 female presidents and was featured in a special editorial project in Shogakukan Oggi. From around this time, Kawasaki became a female entrepreneur. Masako's popularity has also expanded among women.
In 2007, she became the author of the book ``Expiry Date for Working Women,'' which ranked third in the Nikkei Weekly Sales Ranking.
Next, "Women who get hurt, women who don't get hurt" continues. Since these books were released as educational books that encouraged women's independence, they were flooded with requests for lectures from many companies and local governments, and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry accepted a position as a lecturer on the Entrepreneurship Course at Ritsumeikan University's Kusatsu Campus for eight years, and continued to teach courses at multiple universities. I have also taken on seminars.
Additionally, as an industry-academia collaboration, we support Hannan University and students in jointly producing a new brand.
Currently, in addition to business, they are also involved in animal welfare activities as an NPO.
