Hence, in terms of the top tier, very smart people. In terms of science and technology, they want to be the computer scientists. That is why we enjoy hiring those top-tier people. I found that Taiwan is exactly the same. Very top tier, very smart people are willing to be ...

I found that, for example, in Vietnam, we already hired 50-plus AI engineers who can code the deep learning from scratch. The reason is because Vietnam is very strong at the computer science. Their education system encourages everyone to be a computer scientist, because it’s a very great industry for ...

That is why we came back to Japan once. Then, of course, we have aspiration to go to the US or the UK market. This is what we are working on. We also found that the talent side, especially the AI -- this is related to Taiwan -- but the ...

Of course, even in US, there are several businesses processes which require automation, as well, but actually it’s a little bit behind, maybe one year behind compared to Japan. Now Japan is very excited with the AI solutions. Now I observe that the US or the UK has several big ...

The reason is very simple. Japan has the biggest amount of the wasteful work. That means, for example, the US are pretty well digitalized. China is actually not bad in terms of the digitalization. But tons of the operation in Japan is still analog, the paper-based. That is why the ...

We are working on this kind of an AI to automate some of the business processes. We are currently very successful. For example, last month’s sales is a half million seller only for selling just document scanning solutions in Japan. This is what we are now working on. We came ...

Let’s say hospital A, hospital B, hospital C, they have a different format. That is why the simple IT solution cannot solve this problem. That is where the AI plays a big role.

Actually, how to check, because they’re not medical people, they have to input all of those information manually. It takes 30 percent of the time of those sales people. That means 30 percent of the time of 20,000 sales people. Those processes are, to me, ridiculous, because it can be ...

What they are doing, of course, 70 percent of their time is still sales, but 30 percent of their time is just inputting a lot of information. They have to receive, let’s say, the pay slip, the salary proof, or a bank statement, or clinical record, medical records, the blood ...

Currently, we do the company called Cinnamon, which is a AI provider for enterprises. One of the product of ourself is the name, Fax Scanner. For example, in the insurance company or let’s say in a bank, 20,000 of the sales people are working on the sales of the mortgage.

Since then, my dream was simply I wanted to do something technical in Japan and I just wanted to do the business in Japan. I found that the IT area, actually more in technical area, is much bigger in a global market, including the US and China. I really wanted ...

Shares a little bit of background. Number one is I’m a Japanese. I used to be very domestic person until 30 years old. I got a PhD of neural network. Since then, I enjoy a lot in the start-up world, exiting the company to the big corporation, like Yahoo Japan ...

There are several things. Let’s say the first topic could be just a little bit of introduction of myself, as well as our company, and then an intention. We are originally from Japan, but we are now expecting to have a AI researcher branch here in Taiwan.
