Consensus Base Inc.
CEO Hiroshi Shimo

Block chain technology gathers worldwide attention. It is expected that the market will grow in this field where global financial institutions and IT companies enter the market and major VCs are actively investing. Under this situation, in Japan, we provide appropriate advice, consulting and development as a company with expert knowledge and skills.
We are one of the few companies that did business with a number of companies, mainly SoftBank Corp., including major listed companies, and with many experience and achievements in actual business problems and application methods through developments and demonstration experiments. Even those who do not know what the block chain is in the first place are our clients. We are proposing business. Please do not hesitate to consult us.
