Founder Message

Dear everyone,
My name is Chihaya Kakinuma, the founder of HOIST Co., Ltd. The name “HOIST” carries the meaning of “Setting new Sails”. After dedicating myself as a researcher in several companies, I have finally gathered the courage to sail into the open sea, instead of seeking “safe harbor”
