■ How did you learn about x-garden?
I was new to Tokyo, and was looking for friends and business connections. The house manager, Kenta Murakami, was very professional. That’s when I said to myself, “This is it!”
■ Tell us about your career:
While working at a golf course in Hiroshima, I did my own web designing and ran a mail order import store. All the while, I interned with the METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) Global Intern Program. I established IT companies in both Japan and Bangladesh.
◆ Description of your company
– A job search site to promote economic growth and empowerment of Bangladeshi workers (supporting small and medium-sized businesses)
– Bringing Japanese technology to the world via web marketing and website development across 64 countries
– Domestic and overseas crowdfunding services and support: Funding businesses in Japan in Japanese! (In progress)
■ What’s next?
I want to embody positivity, both as an entrepreneur and as a human being, and share my ideas with those around me.
■ What you’re striving for now:
■ Self promotion:
IT gave me, a high school graduate, the opportunity of a lifetime. Through IT, I will create opportunities for Japan and the world at large. Thank you for your support!
