ATOMica Inc. (Headquarters: Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture; Co-CEOs: Mizuki Shimada, Kazuki Nanbara; hereinafter referred to as "ATOMica") announces that its KOMMONS Company (Company CEO: Yushi Shiratsuka) will hold "CS Summer Camp 2026" from August 29th (Saturday) to August 30th (Sunday), 2026, for two days and one night, within "CS KOMMONS," Japan's largest Customer Success (hereinafter referred to as "CS") community.
In recent years, while the evolution of generative AI has led to increased efficiency in many business operations, the value of "primary customer information" has become more critical than ever. CS holds the most information about customers' challenges, what they find valuable, and why they continue or churn. At CS KOMMONS, we believe that in this era, CS is not just a customer support department but plays a crucial role as a hub for delivering customer voices to the business and organization. The "CS Summer Camp 2026" will be held under the theme "Same Problems, Different Perspectives," providing a platform to share practical knowledge beyond company boundaries on topics such as AI utilization, inter-departmental collaboration, and management, and to contemplate the future of "Customer Success Management."
■ Why Customer Success Management Now?
Traditional integrated organizations and THE MODEL-style segmented organizations both face challenges in acquiring and utilizing primary customer information across the entire company, leading to "wasted potential" where customer value is not correctly realized. Customer Success Management is a new form of business operation that circulates primary information from the field, gathered by CS, to departments such as development, sales, and marketing, maximizing LTV based on "customer success."
Historically, CS has often been discussed in terms of its role in preventing churn among existing customers. However, with the widespread adoption of generative AI making access to public information easier, the importance of primary information from the field has significantly increased, leading to greater expectations for CS. On the other hand, many organizations still have limited roles for CS, failing to achieve the maximum value creation they should be capable of.
Therefore, we believe there is a need for a place where individuals can learn by sharing practical knowledge across companies and bring their challenges and trial-and-error experiences from their respective fields.
■ Camp Theme: "Same Problems, Different Perspectives."
AI utilization, inter-departmental collaboration, and management. Many companies face similar challenges as they work towards contributing to the business through CS. However, the approaches and solutions to these challenges vary from company to company.
At "CS Summer Camp 2026," peers facing the same issues will gather beyond company lines to share their practices and trial-and-error experiences. This is not a place to be taught answers, but rather to encounter different perspectives and apply them to one's own company.
■ Camp to Feature Outcome Presentations of the First Half "Hataraku PJ" in 2026
This summer camp will primarily feature the outcome presentations of the "Hataraku PJ" (Work Project) conducted in the first half of the year within CS KOMMONS. Hataraku PJ is a project where community members, gathered from various companies, form teams around CS-related themes to learn through practice and dialogue. Discussions among participants will also be held after each session to allow for reflection and application to their own companies.
The themes for the first half of 2026 activities are as follows:
Theme-Specific Breakout PJs:
Focusing on AI utilization in CS operations, sharing case studies and trial-and-error experiences from each company.
Breaking Down Organizational Walls PJ:
Discussing collaboration beyond departments, such as "CS x Development" and "CS x Marketing," and building customer-centric organizations.

■ Organizer's Comment: Yushi Shiratsuka, CEO of ATOMICA KOMMONS Company / Head of CS KOMMONS Operations
With the rise of generative AI, the value of primary customer information is increasing further. In this context, CS is expected to play an even more crucial role as a hub for delivering customer voices to the business and organization. However, practical examples of "Customer Success Management," which aims to make CS an organization that drives business growth beyond just preventing churn of existing customers, are still scarce.
That is precisely why, for this summer camp, we want to create a space where we can bring together the trial-and-error experiences that each company is currently facing regarding AI utilization, organizational collaboration, and management, and engage in dialogue beyond company boundaries. We hope that these two days will provide an opportunity to encounter new perspectives and colleagues, and to contemplate Customer Success Management in one's own company.
