Homiey Company Inc. (CEO: Koichi Takahashi) is pleased to announce that its CEO, Koichi Takahashi, has been appointed as a 'Yamanashi Ambassador' to promote the charm of Yamanashi Prefecture both domestically and internationally, and to play a role in regional revitalization.
Going forward, utilizing our expertise in SNS management, video production, PR, and advertising management, we will broadly deliver the charm of Yamanashi inside and outside the prefecture through 'marketing that does not end with awareness but leads to sales,' while supporting the challenges of local businesses and young people.

Background of 'Yamanashi Ambassador' Appointment

The 'Yamanashi Ambassador' is appointed by Yamanashi Prefecture with the aim of proposing ways to revitalize the prefecture by promoting 'Yamanashi's charm'—such as the rich nature of Mt. Fuji and the Southern Alps, and local products including fruits, wine, and jewelry—through various opportunities to improve the prefecture's image.
Details: https://www.pref.yamanashi.jp/kankou-sk/yamanashi-ambassadors.html

Born in Yamanashi Prefecture, Takahashi has dedicated himself to supporting youth, entrepreneurship, and local businesses in SNS/PR, as well as launching regional projects within the prefecture, driven by a strong desire to 'give back to my hometown of Yamanashi' and to 'convey the charm of a prefecture so brimming with business potential.'
With this appointment as a Yamanashi Ambassador, he aims to further contribute to solving regional issues, such as a lack of information dissemination capabilities and youth out-migration, through the power of marketing.

As Proof of Appointment and a 'Gateway' for Future Activities

As proof of his activities as a Yamanashi Ambassador, he will use a business card featuring a beautiful inverted Mt. Fuji landscape and the logo of 'Wine Prefecture Yamanashi,' which boasts the highest production volume in Japan, to promote activities inside and outside the prefecture.
With an eye toward international outreach beyond Japan, both Japanese and English versions are available.

In various encounter settings, such as future marketing support and regional activities, we intend to utilize this business card as a tool to broadcast Yamanashi's charm and as a 'gateway' to forge new connections with local businesses and municipalities.

Comment from CEO Koichi Takahashi
Koichi Takahashi
I am deeply honored to be appointed as a Yamanashi Ambassador.
Yamanashi holds numerous charms, including nature, food, culture, industry, and the people who take on challenges.
I have worked to transform the charm of companies and regions into 'compelling forms' through marketing, video, SNS, and PR.
In doing so, I have often seen the challenge of 'having something good but failing to communicate it,' and I strongly feel that Yamanashi holds similar untapped potential.

Rather than just disseminating Yamanashi's charm as mere information, I want to convey it as a story of 'who is making it and with what passion,' utilizing SNS and video to deliver it in a way that more people can feel intuitively.

I want to tell the youth and local business people that 'there are challenges you can take on precisely because it is a regional area,' rather than 'you cannot do it because it is a regional area.'
Moving forward, as a Yamanashi Ambassador, I will strive to contribute, even slightly, to the region's future by transforming Yamanashi's charm into 'compelling forms' and delivering them both inside and outside the prefecture.
