Company Overview and Business Description

• Established: June 2019

• Representative: Naoki Ishihara

• Address: 5-11-9 Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo

• Vision & Mission: To create unknown possibilities using blockchain technology and contribute to solving problems for people and society.

• Deep Dive into Business:

  • Turingum is a consulting firm specializing in Web3 and blockchain technology. Beyond simple contract development, they provide end-to-end support for client companies, from the planning stage of Web3 business launches through to operations.

  • Their particular strengths lie in tokenomics (token economy) design and smart contract development. These are fields that require not only technical knowledge but also expertise in a wide range of areas such as economics, law, and marketing, symbolizing the company's high level of specialization.

  • They offer a wide range of services, but the core consists of the following three:

    1. Web3 Business Consulting: Supporting everything from large corporations to startups in formulating Web3 business strategies and building business models. They have particular strengths in areas fundamental to the business, such as "Web3 business model formulation" and "tokenomics design."

    2. Web3 Product Development: Undertaking the development of various Web3 products, including blockchain games, NFT marketplaces, and DeFi (decentralized finance) services. They excel in development requiring advanced technical skills, such as "smart contract development and auditing" and "proprietary blockchain construction."

    3. Blockchain Technology Implementation Support: In addition to launching Web3 businesses, they also provide support for introducing blockchain technology into existing businesses and offer advice on related legal and tax matters.

Financial Soundness and Growth Potential

• Funding Status: While there is little publicly available information on their funding, they have a stable business foundation as a consolidated subsidiary of the publicly traded company Nex Group Co., Ltd. This gives them the strength to commit to long-term projects with stability, despite being a venture company.

• Revenue and Profit Trends: There is no publicly available information.

• Future Potential and Market Forecast: The Web3 market is still in its infancy and is expected to grow significantly over the next few years. The company has built a track record in cutting-edge fields such as token design and Web3 game development, and business growth is expected as the market expands. On the other hand, trends in legal regulations regarding cryptocurrencies and Web3 are risk factors that should be closely monitored.

Organization and Work Style

• Corporate Culture and Values:

  • A culture is deeply rooted in taking pride in being a "professional group," where highly specialized members strive to improve together.

  • Almost exclusively full remote work is the standard, and members with diverse backgrounds work without being tied to a physical location. By utilizing Discord and Notion, they consciously maintain close communication to preserve a sense of team unity.

  • It is an organization with a strong frontier spirit that values "challenge" and actively incorporates new technologies and trends to apply them to the business.

• Work Style:

  • Full remote work and a flextime system have been introduced, enabling a work style that is not bound by time or place.

  • Opportunities for face-to-face interaction are also provided at company-wide meetings held once a quarter.

• Average Salary and Evaluation System:

  • According to job postings, the expected annual salary is set within a wide range of 3 million to 9 million yen.

• Benefits:

  • Systems that consider work-life balance, such as childcare leave, are in place.

Company Appeal

1. Experience creating '0 to 1' on the front lines of the Web3 industry: As a consulting firm specializing in Web3, there are abundant opportunities to be deeply involved in launching new businesses for large corporations. You can gain dynamic experience in creating new value that does not yet exist in the world, rather than simply improving existing services.

2. A chance to acquire highly marketable expertise: Through practical work, you can acquire advanced skills and knowledge that will be in increasingly high demand, such as tokenomics design and smart contract development. This will become a weapon that significantly increases your market value in the job market.

3. A work style that balances freedom and responsibility: The introduction of full remote work and a flextime system enables a flexible work style tailored to your lifestyle. However, this also comes with the responsibility to work autonomously and deliver results. For those with high self-management skills and professionalism, this is an incredibly attractive environment.
