Investor Comments

Mr. Hidetaka Sato, Executive Director, DeepCore Inc.
With the rise of generative AI, the demand for digital transformation (DX) in businesses is growing rapidly. In the generative AI era, it is crucial to not only focus on data, as in previous AI applications, but also to provide the power to drive AI adoption at the grassroots level. GenerativeX has the high-level proposal skills, implementation capabilities, and the culture and strong team necessary to make this a reality. I look forward to seeing how their services and products help both domestic and international companies achieve true DX through generative AI, and I will continue to support their growth.

Mr. Masaki Hayashi, Partner, Angel Bridge Inc., and Mr. Ryosuke Yao, Director
We are thrilled to invest in GenerativeX and partner with them. As a generative AI-native firm, GenerativeX has rapidly expanded its business, attracting top companies from various industries despite being only a year old. Its strength lies in having a team of professionals who deeply understand both business and technology. I believe GenerativeX will continue to contribute to improving productivity both in Japan and globally, and I have full confidence in their future success.

Mr. Hiroki Yamamoto, Senior Manager, Investment Division 2, Mitsubishi UFJ Capital Inc.
I met CEO Araki through an acceleration program where I participated as a mentor last year, and after multiple discussions, we decided to invest. While there are many companies offering generative AI consulting, GenerativeX stands out for its collaborative approach that deeply engages with clients' challenges. Despite being a young company, they have already earned high praise from several major corporations. I look forward to seeing how their work accelerates DX in Japanese companies in a meaningful way.

Mr. Takeji Nemoto, General Manager, Investment Division 5, Mizuho Capital Inc.
We are excited to participate in GenerativeX's seed round. While business efficiency improvement through generative AI is a highly sought-after field, there is a relative shortage of key players in this space. GenerativeX is able to deliver quick proposals by having consultants who understand both business and technology, handling everything from requirements definition to implementation. Since its founding, the company has started working with top corporations from various industries. We expect GenerativeX's success will improve productivity across large corporations, and we will continue to provide our full support.
