Brave group ตั้งบริษัทสาขาใหม่ในประเทศไทยและจีน ส่งผลให้จำนวนสำนักงานในต่างประเทศที่เพิ่งสร้างใหม่ในปี 2566 เป็น 5 ใน 4 ประเทศ

Brave group Inc. has established local subsidiaries in Thailand and China, following the U.K. and U.S. Our overseas expansion in 2023 has increased in four countries and five offices, bringing Brave group’s global network to five countries and ten locations, including those in Japan.

 

Background of Our Global Expansion

Brave group’s purpose is “Japanese Adventure. World Wide Romance”, with the mission to “Strike Wonder in 8 Billion Hearts”. With this purpose and mission in mind, Brave group has been working on IP businesses such as the next generation Virtual esports project “VSPO!” (*1) and the virtual music label “RIOT MUSIC” (*2), the platform business which operates “ME CAMPUS (*3)” , a virtual school city, and the esports business, which produces the esports school “CR Gaming School(*4)”. We intend to work on further business fields such as XR business, DX business and incubation businesses.

This year, in order to accelerate the global expansion of our business, we established overseas corporations in four countries, held global auditions targeting the English-speaking, Chinese-speaking, and European markets, and launched several overseas projects, with a total of 20 overseas VTubers debuting, including those from existing projects.

The VTuber market is currently expanding both domestically and internationally, and the number of overseas production companies and individual talents is increasing one after another.
Brave group believes that it is important for local staff and casts to work closely together to create businesses while experiencing firsthand the unique local culture and customs.

Comment from Representative of Brave group APAC / Brave group China Jun Funabashi

This year, we have taken a very aggressive global expansion by establishing offices in the UK, the US, Thailand, and China.
We believe that it is meaningless to just establish a company or a business and do nothing, so we will take action and do our best to embody our vision “A Symphony of Innovations, Pioneering a Brighter Tomorrow”.

 

Comment from Keito Noguchi, Representative Director of Brave group Inc.

With the establishment of the Thailand and the China subsidiary, Brave group now has 15 group companies.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Director Funabashi, the Human Resources Division who conducted recruitment under him, the Business Administration Division, Public Relations Office, CFO Office, and Sales Planning Division who supported our rapid expansion, and the Corporate Growth Division who supported our global expansion.
Thanks to them, we have been able to continue to integrate management and create new businesses despite our size and start-up status.
In 2023, we have laid the foundation for the 0 → 1 phase, so we will push forward as a united company to make a leap forward from 1 → 10 → 100 in 2024.

As of December 1st, 2023, Brave group has 253 employees (a 222.4% increase from the previous year) and 15 companies. As we keep expanding our organization as we diversify our business and services, we are actively recruiting new talents.
