Equity Consulting Group Announces Establishment of U.S. Subsidiary, "Equity Consulting Group USA , Inc."

Equity Consulting Group Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Representative Director and President: Kouta Nakagawa) is pleased to announce the establishment of its wholly-owned subsidiary, "Equity Consulting Group USA , Inc.", in New York, USA, with the aim of expanding its global business. Our company has been providing consulting services primarily in the areas of strategy, DX, AI, and business transformation, under the vision of "democratizing consulting." In recent years, against the backdrop of increasing demand for overseas expansion among Japanese companies and growing needs for management and back-office support among Japanese-affiliated companies in the United States, we have been promoting business expansion in the global sphere. The United States, in particular, is the world's largest market and a critical base for many Japanese companies advancing into and expanding their businesses. However, many companies face challenges in local management, business operations, human resources, and DX promotion, leading to a rising need for consulting and BPO support that can accompany them at a practical level. Given this environment, our company completed the registration of its US subsidiary, "Equity Consulting Group USA , Inc." on April 28, 2026, and will officially commence support for Japanese companies entering the US and consulting/BPO support for Japanese-affiliated companies in the US, based in New York. Going forward, in addition to strategy formulation and DX support, we will build a comprehensive support system spanning Japan and the US, including back-office operations support, generative AI utilization support, and local operation establishment, to contribute to the global growth of Japanese companies.
