Virtual Office 'One Stop Business Center', Supporting 25,000 Companies, Launches New Project 'Side Business University' on Official YouTube Channel!

One Stop Business Center Co., Ltd. (President: Yasuhiro Ikuta, Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; hereinafter referred to as 'the Company'), which operates virtual offices nationwide and supports startups, will launch a new project, 'Side Business University,' on its official YouTube channel on June 11, 2026. To commemorate the launch, the Company has invited popular marketer Kazushi Nagae as a special professor. The project aims to explore the secrets of successful side hustlers and provide solutions for individuals struggling with side businesses and companies seeking to utilize side business talent. Furthermore, the Company plans to invite various other experts as special professors to deliver diverse content related to side businesses.

[Background and Objectives]
Currently, the domestic side business market is rapidly expanding due to the proliferation of diverse working styles and legal reforms. However, a significant gap exists, with three times as many people wanting to start a side business as those who are actually doing so.

This gap stems from challenges faced by individuals, such as 'not knowing how to start' or 'not grasping how to earn,' and difficulties encountered by small businesses, including 'lacking reliable outsourcing partners amidst talent shortages, making it hard to find talented freelancers or side business professionals' and 'anxiety about whether side business talent will fit within the company.'

Therefore, 'Side Business University' will provide comprehensive know-how tailored to individuals at different stages, from aspiring side hustlers to experienced individuals looking to increase sales, and companies seeking to leverage talented side business professionals for their projects. The university will also facilitate matching between companies using One Stop Business Center and side business professionals, supporting individuals in taking their first step into side businesses.

The objective is to widely promote the convenience and value of 'One Stop Business Center' as an infrastructure for startups and side businesses through videos, and to provide comprehensive support for building a future business foundation.

[Message from Yasuhiro Ikuta, President of 'Side Business University']
While supporting our clients, I've identified two key challenges related to side businesses. Firstly, many individuals have the motivation but struggle to advance their side businesses effectively. Secondly, many companies with clear business models are stagnating due to talent shortages. My desire is to guide individuals who are serious about succeeding in side businesses onto the right path and to help companies struggling with talent shortages achieve dramatic breakthroughs by utilizing side business professionals. 'Side Business University' was established with the aim of providing a practical learning and networking platform to fully support the challenges of both parties.

[Message from Kazushi Nagae, Special Professor at 'Side Business University']
The most crucial factor for success in side businesses is not chasing trends, but finding a method that aligns with one's strengths and lifestyle. For individuals who are serious about earning and increasing their market value, 'Side Business University' will unsparingly impart real survival strategies and secrets to success. While many dubious side business schemes exist and continue to deceive people, this program aims to discard the naive idea of 'earning easily' and instead present strategies based on a fundamental and realistic perspective: 'earning through effort by carefully considering reality and market needs.'

Furthermore, for companies, talented external side business professionals are the strongest cards for explosively breaking through in business. The key is not merely outsourcing tasks, but understanding how to involve professionals with the right mindset and structure. We will clearly explain the essential 'Side Business Talent Utilization Techniques' for companies to achieve dramatic growth, incorporating case studies.
