■Comments from Mr. Oikawa Now that software power determines the success or failure of a company, it is essential to evaluate human resources skills such as software design and implementation. We decided to invest this time because we are convinced that Hiyaru will be the key service. I would like to use my many years of experience in the industry to support hire companies and accelerate the growth of many companies.
