Today, Brave group has entered its ninth fiscal year. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you who support our challenges.
Since our founding in 2017, we have expanded our business and organization through a series of challenges such as management integration and establishment of overseas offices.
This fiscal year is an extremely important "year of victory" for us, as we will create synergies by integrating the strengths of the group and lay the foundation for our next leap forward.
