--Please tell us again about the TicketMe service.

Chikeo:Me is a marketplace where you can buy and sell tickets for all kinds of goods and services.

Currently, it is widely used for the exchange of event tickets, and VIP seats for Japanese national clients such as HORIPRO and TOHO are sold as NFT tickets.

--Please tell us how you came to establish Chikemy.

Chikeo: I moved to Tokyo in April 2021 when I entered Waseda University, and one day when I visited Ikebukuro with a friend who wanted to buy a bicycle, I saw a man selling clothes on the street.

There, new Converse and Playboys were being sold for 500 yen, and I was curious about how he stocked the products in the shop, so I became friends with the man and asked him to talk to me.

I took a hint from what he told me at the time and finally decided that it would be better to do EC instead of shops, so I started my first business.After setting up the EC site and selling it after about six months, I joined a venture capital company called East Ventures and worked as a researcher for a while. I worked as a researcher for a while.

At that time, I gained a better understanding of the logistics market and became even more interested in the logistics industry than before. This led me to wonder if it would be possible to create a ‘value distribution platform that could distribute all kinds of goods’, and here I am today.
