The award ceremony held in Qingdao, China on September 20, 2024 ■About the reason for the award Through our unique “contract development without delivery” business model, we are able to interact directly with clients and develop independently for a fixed monthly fee. The company was recognized for its ability to continually develop and improve its systems to meet client needs. Additionally, our autonomous management style of “management without management” has been highly praised. ■About “contracted development without delivery” Contract development without delivery is our unique business model devised to solve the problems of traditional software development. Its features include a fixed monthly fee, advisory format, and performance contract. Since it is a fixed monthly fee, there is no estimate for each function developed. Additionally, as our customer’s advisor, our development manager takes on all responsibilities related to development, from business consultation to programming. And we deliver results, not time. We will develop and operate the system stably and continue to share the results through regular meetings. At the root of our contracted development without delivery is our desire to create good products together with our customers. We believe that “good things” are things that lead to reliable business growth. And one that continues to adapt to change. To this end, we go beyond a relationship that ends with delivery and continue to accompany our customers as a true partner. *Details of commissioned development without delivery URL:

We have a unique corporate culture, with no company sales targets or individual quotas, and complete freedom in where and when to work (flextime/remote work). We achieve high productivity and quality by having each employee work with autonomy. Another feature of our company is that we manage the company as a community by eliminating the gap between management and employees. We are also taking on new initiatives such as the apprenticeship system* to develop new graduates and young people with little experience. *About the apprenticeship system that Sonic Garden is working on “The difference between a boss and a master, and developing programmers by reinventing the apprenticeship system” URL:
