ADVISORY BOARD

I think ad:tech is the place where you can have the opportunity to connect with various people and experience dynamic marketing.

Advertising is a reflection of the changing world. But in the past few years, I believe that advertising has been ahead of the changes in the world in fields such as digitization and data utilization. With the response to privacy issues and the AI utilization, advertising continues to be in a position to stay ahead of change.
I hope to contribute to the entire industry so that people will say that the front line of advertising is the front line of the world.

I look forward to participating in this event, and I look forward to meeting digital communication and digital marketing that moves people's hearts and excites them.

Over the past two years, I feel that companies have been asked to improve the quality of their information disclosure from a sustainability perspective, especially from an ESG perspective. I feel that it is extremely important to collaborate with multiple departments in order to communicate policies and initiatives that are linked to business strategies in an attractive manner to stakeholders.

ad:tech is a place filled with opportunities to develop your taste for marketing. You are invited to explore the latest marketing case studies and ideas of many great marketers and then ponder over what you have seen and heard for yourself. It is a great place to get away from your daily routine for a while and enjoy exciting and productive input that inspires your brain.

What is ad:tech, which has been held for more than a decade? I believe that each person has their own answer at their own time when they rethink the question.
One of the significance of ad:tech, as we see it, is that it allows us to look outside the company. Input on the latest topics in various fields, as well as connect with people who are leading in the industry.
The awesomeness of the situation made me make up my mind to stand there someday myself. In this way, I believe that "it is a place that changes my standards from inside the company to outside the company.” In other words, ad:tech is a platform that also has such aspects.

I was brought up by "ad:tech tokyo".
I learn a lot by participating, I learn a lot by speaking, and I learn a lot at the parties.
I gain not only knowledge but also insight. You develop friendships as well as connections.
Like-minded people gather together, and we receive work from them. "ad:tech tokyo" is a pillar of the Japanese marketing and advertising industry.
”ad:tech tokyo" is the place where Japanese marketing and advertising professionals are born. There is longing, pride, and passion.
This is the place where you can be a part of it.

The vision of Google Japan is to "Unlock Japan’s potential together with the power of digital". Japan still has tangible and intangible assets with great potential that just need to be utilized. I would be happy to exchange views with you in the hope of helping to expand Japan's potential by using the power of digital marketing to solve issues that are becoming barriers to realizing this potential and turn them into opportunities.

I think ad:tech is the "battle of knowledge" in marketing.
There is no need for compromise, no pitfalls, no order of priority, and the only requirement for both speakers and audiences is to participate in diversity, to exchange ideas, to enhance each other's individuality, and to discuss ideas with each other.

With an environment where organic communication has been reduced due to the Covid-19, I am very excited to capture trends and examples from a big picture perspective that transcends industry through ad:tech tokyo 2023.We hope to collaborate with many of you while receiving tips on how to develop Amazon's advertising business, as it is still in its developing stages.

This is the best event to listen to the many participants, interact with them, and learn about and connect with the diversifying trends in the world. It is a place where you can find your strengths, weaknesses, and beliefs.

If I had not attended ad:tech Kansai in 2014, I would not be the same person I am today. Participating in ad:tech, learning from so many marketers has broadened my entrenched perspective, and the network of people that was created at ad:tech Kansai has helped me grow tremendously. It is a wonderful and unique event. I look forward to meeting new people and learning the unexpected this year as well.

I would like to expand the possibilities of marketing by bringing marketing and its peripheral fields closer together, such as design and editing as ideologies, and human resources, corporate planning, and team management as work fields. Let us work together to communicate people about the concept of marketing so that it will not be confined to marketers and marketing departments, but will be more useful to society.

ad:tech is the place where user companies, agencies, and technology vendors can talk genuinely with each other and discover overseas trends, have serious discussions with industry leaders and talented newcomers, clarify their minds, gain knowledge, and connect with that person you want to meet.

For me, ad:tech is an opportunity to concentrate on learning about global trends and case studies from other companies. It's also a place where you will meet great people who will have a life-changing impact on your career. (In fact, I did.) Whether you take advantage of it or not, whether you seek it out yourself or not, is up to you. Hope that you will take full advantage of this valuable opportunity.

ad:tech is a place where 'knowledge fusion' from various aspects such as advertisers, agencies and media takes place.
I participate every year as a place to break stereotypes in a positive sense, and I look forward to having discussions with everyone and gaining a lot of insights.

Thoughtful insight from Marketing professional has been tested under the fragile world situation. Your transformational experience from analog to digital has a lot of value right now.
Let’s take a step forward for the better future.

Now that technology has become easy to use and teams can do a certain amount of things without a corporate organization, I feel again that what is essentially important is the "will of the individual. What kind of organization or company do these individuals want to exist in? What should be changed? This is my recent concern.

Digital advertising is approaching its next stage of development due to market expansion, accelerating technological evolution, and fundamental changes in consumers.
I believe that discussing the next generation of advertising communication at this very moment is of inestimable value, as it is a deep reflection on the state of social life and the economy itself.

The environment around us, especially technology, is constantly changing, and marketing must evolve accordingly. In fact, Professor Kotler, under whom I studied at the Kellogg School of Management, is over 90 years old and still evolving. I believe that those involved in marketing should continue to learn, and ad tech:tokyo is truly a place where marketers gain new inspiration and evolution.

It's difficult to measure the ability value of a marketer correctly. There is no exam or qualification, and it is not equivalent to a position or title.
How should we measure it? My answer is "people". I believe that we should compare ourselves with as many others as possible. ad:tech is a place where you can compare yourself with a great number and variety of people. Please join us to compare your strengths.

From technology, design, tools to media, ad:tech tokyo is an event where you can participate in all aspects of marketing as your interests lead you.
You may not get the answers directly from the session.
However, there are sure to be many tips and awareness.
Please encounter as many speakers' "words" as the time allows.

The "knowledge" and "human connections" we encounter at ad:tech tokyo are all up-to-date and sophisticated, and they always pose new questions to us. It is also a valuable opportunity to raise the level of abstraction and think about opportunities and challenges in the industry as a whole. I look forward to many new encounters this year.

As the industry's premier event, I look forward to attending every year since the early days.
I expect further events as a place where you are able to meet and experience not only the latest "information" but also "people" in the field of marketing in general, not just digital.

For those who attend because they want to know something specific, they will find the answer; for marketers who don't have a specific question, everything they encounter at ad:tech will lead to something that will change their actions for the next day. I look forward to connecting with many of you this year and discovering new things to know here.

One of the reasons that ad:tech tokyo considers itself unique is the way its programs develop.It reflects the knowledge of advisors representing various practical fields, including BtoC, BtoB, large corporate, startup, foreign, agency, media, data, technology, research, PR, etc.That is why each theme is able to accurately extract "the current year" and propose a cutting edge, based on immortal concepts, while also including those that seemed to shine brightly for a time.

I sincerely hope that ad:tech continues to consistently offer cutting-edge insights and indispensable value in the years to come.

The way to take a step forward may be different for each of us, but I believe ad:tech is the place where you can encounter such stimulation and discovery.

I have encountered many people and updated myself a lot through ad:tech for almost 10 years now. I also enjoy how ad:tech itself is evolving in terms of diversity, sustainability, and more.
I hope that many of you will update yourselves and meet many new people this year at ad:tech, a place which never stops growing.

ad:tech is the place to get a sense of what the hottest themes in digital-based marketing communications are.
ad:tech is the place that allows you to draw themes to your company and yourself and get hints for solutions.
ad:tech is also an opportunity to make acquaintances and reconnect with each other.

As a company, how can these three things be more integrated, to "continue to be loved", to "grow", and to capture the "digital" changes in society and business in order to do so? How can these three be better integrated and not fragmented? This is the inspiration that we have been facing. Through ad:tech, where we can experience the highest level of exploration and deep discussion, we hope to search for answers together with you.

ad:tech has always been my teacher. Bathed in the latest topics and panel discussions, the body is left with a positive fuzzy feeling. I would search out the panelists in the hall, exchange business cards without hesitation, then listened and talked to them. I believe that ad:tech is a place where you can do the marketing treasure hunt enjoyably and earnestly.

For me, ad:tech is the place to,,,
(1) Gain new insights
(2) Ensure that my ideas are correct
(3) Build a living network

Please join us, as I get so much inspiration every time I attend!

It has been ten years since I first attended ad:tech tokyo.
Every single year has been an important opportunity for me to encounter great information and people.
It is also an opportunity to not only gather information, but also to actively create opportunities to share it.
That is the best part of this event, in my opinion.
Please take advantage of this as an output opportunity as well.

ad:tech tokyo has always been a place for me to learn about new trends, find new ideas, and meet new people. In fact, many new businesses were created from there. I hope that this will be a starting point for each of you to feel inspiration and take action on it.

ad:tech is a place where "happy attitude change" is born in all participants.
Meeting attractive people, encountering stimulating information, the excitement of wanting to try something, the frustration of not wanting to lose, and so on.
We hope you enjoy these two days of exposure to the cutting edge!

With the current climate of uncertainty and information overload, I believe that marketing has become increasingly important in all industries. Digital utilization, which used to be a " method" such as ad tech, is now being used to solve essential issues. Let's grow together, stimulated by the real voices of those who are ahead of us and the experiences of those who are struggling.

Efficiency leads to homogeneity.
Diversity leads to inefficiency.
Here, you will be able to find tips on how to solve those contradictory issues.
I think that data is not just about numbers, even though numbers are one aspect of data.
Data are the footprints left by each person.
Let's Gather with a Theory!
