Featuring the 'COO Contractor' Who Supported 2 IPOs! Study Session on 'Conditions for a No.2 to Grow a Company' to be Held on Tuesday, May 19

Keiei Sanbo Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Kenji Shintani), which operates the executive community 'Sanbo', will hold a study session titled "What are the 'Conditions for a No. 2 to Grow a Company' that Presidents Need to Know?" on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, at the Akasaka venue (SHOT VILLAGE Akasaka store). In this study session, we will invite Mr. Yuji Mori, the 'COO contractor' who supported the IPOs of Hatena Co., Ltd. and Irep Co., Ltd., as a guest. He will share practical insights based on his experiences regarding the conditions, how to find, how to hire, and how to work with a 'No. 2' who can grow a company.

Background of the Event Many executives face dilemmas such as "Operations won't run unless I take action myself" or "I don't have anyone to share my vision with." What determines the speed of a company's growth is often not just the president's ability, but the presence of a "No. 2" who embodies that vision. However, the reality is that the "theoretical image of a right-hand man" overflowing in the world is difficult to apply in actual practice. Therefore, in this study session, we will deliver the "truly necessary conditions for a No. 2" derived from the experience of actually surviving tough situations, told from a practitioner's perspective.

Features and Highlights of the Seminar - Mr. Yuji Mori, the 'COO contractor' with a track record of supporting two companies' IPOs as a de facto No. 2, will take the stage. - Revealing the "truly necessary conditions for a No. 2" drawn not from theory, but from real-life experiences in tough situations. - Explaining concrete know-how on recruitment and development: "How to find and evaluate excellent talent." - Teaching the secret for a president to build a relationship where they can talk frankly with their No. 2. - Providing an opportunity to interact directly with the speaker and other executives at the networking party after the study session.
