Team
Netsujo Inc. is a Web3/AI business-development support company based in Shimogyo-ku, Kyoto. CEO Tomohiro Iida (business development, on-the-ground translation) and CTO Yasunori Matsuoka (technical lead, blockchain implementation) form the core team, working alongside contract partners on each engagement.
Our policy is to spend the first half of every engagement structuring the problem by listening to people on the ground, before moving on to technology selection. Making Web3 and AI stick in the real world takes more than working technology — it requires decision-makers on site to genuinely understand why this is needed now.
What we value
- Field First
- We start from what we hear on the ground, not from a textbook. We observe how local government, fishing, healthcare, and finance actually make decisions and run their workflows before judging where Web3 or AI applies.
- Be the Translator
- We translate across the lines between specialists, generations, and industries — turning Web3 terminology into concrete statements about how a day-to-day operation will change is central to how we run an engagement.
- From Kyoto, World-Class
- Kyoto Big Data Utilization Platform membership, ties to universities in Kyoto Prefecture, and running the Kyoto IT community "Miyako de IT" give us a regional base — but we build to a world-class standard of quality.
