We dive into:
What decision intelligence really means (and why dashboards are outdated)
Japan’s late-mover advantage in AI and manufacturing
How Evan is building a global-first company from Tokyo
The biggest mistakes founders make (and how to avoid them)
Why “permission” might be the missing link in Japan’s startup ecosystem

You can’t afford another quarter of static planning. The global supply chain is now exposed to global shocks – tariffs, port delays, labor volatility – that demand fast, structured responses.
Kimaru gives you a real decision layer on top of the tools you already use. Not just a system of record – a system of action.
If your team is buried in reactive firefighting, this is the fix.
