53571310558_1c1db167f3_c

Synopsis:

Ever dreamed of building rockets but ended up in FinTech? Buckle up, because this talk features Koji Yamamoto, the CEO of Atlas Technologies – a company that deified the odds...just like Koji's career path! At 18, Koji set his sights on space, but his 20s took him on a different trajectory. Don't worry, it wasn't a black hole – in his 30s, he landed in FinTech with SoftBank, eventually founding Atlas Technologies with… well, let's just say minimal resources.

We're talking 500,000 yen, a used laptop, and his own invaluable leadership. No money, no employees, no office, no clients – but that didn't stop them! In his talk, Koji shares the secrets of their incredible rise – going public in just 4 years and 10 months, all without loans or investments.
