Uzabase, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Uzabase”) has announced a strategic reorganization of its management and executive structure, following a resolution passed during a recent board meeting. Effective January 2025, Yusuke Inagaki will assume the role of sole CEO. This follows the planned resignation of Taira Sakuma, who has led the company with Yusuke Inagaki as co-CEO since 2021 and will be stepping down from the co-CEO and representative director positions on December 31, 2024.
Since its founding, Uzabase has adapted its management strategies to make optimal use of its human resources, supporting a collaborative management approach that leverages collective strengths and addresses individual challenges. This dynamic and adaptive strategy has been a cornerstone of Uzabase’s business growth through changing operational landscapes.
In 2023, following the transition to private ownership, Uzabase embarked on structural reforms to develop a scalable business model and organizational structure. These efforts align with our purpose: “Awaken a world of play in business, with our insights.”
In order to establish a more cohesive and effective management and executive framework, the reorganization to be implemented in January 2025 will introduce the role of Senior Executive Officer. This arrangement will enhance the synergy between our core offerings, the business intelligence platform スピーダ (“Speeda”[*]) and the social business media outlet NewsPicks, ultimately enriching user experience and value.
As previously announced in July 2024, Uzabase has consolidated its suite of SaaS products, formerly marketed across distinct fields, under a unified brand スピーダ (“Speeda”). Click here for more details on this consolidation.
The appointments of fourteen Senior Executive Officers have been finalized as part of this strategic enhancement. The list of appointees is as follows:
