I have been appointed as the Representative Director of Scorenet Co., Ltd. I accept this heavy responsibility with respect for the business that founder Takuhiro Nomura built over 30 years and for all the golf course and tournament officials who have walked with us.
The power of golf as a place for building trust and networking in domestic and international business deeply aligns with the needs of the executive class that our group serves. With this conviction, we will leverage the group's wide network, including Forbes JAPAN, to expand opportunities for using the golf desk and contribute to the development of the golf industry through further enhancement of tournaments and events. We will strive to create new value while carefully inheriting the trust relationships cultivated with business partners under Mr. Nomura.
