Our intention for the business partnership this time
Since GA technologies established its business in 2013, our mission has always been "Creating a world-leading company that inspires people through technology x innovation." Our goal is to push the old-fashioned real estate industry in Japan to catch up with the digital transformation happening in all industries. We have been expanding our business practices into various fields besides real estate. One of the steps we have taken is to start the provision of M&A consulting service for corporations using AI technology know-how (The service is provided by sub company MtechA).
On the other hand, the joining of SPICACONSULTING will allow us to provide a more comprehensive M&A consultation to our customers by adding SPICA CONSULTING's soft skill of "professional counseling". We are able to provide a strategic advising service to both sides of our customers (The transferer and the transferee) in the process of M&A. This is going to place GA technologies in a more competitive position against our competitors.
By combining the strengths of both GA technologies and SPICA CONSULTING in tech aspect and soft skill aspect will make our M&A business grow faster and to offer customers a more elaborate customer experience in the future. What our customers will get is a one-step asset management solution with extra options of real estate and finance commodities that comes along with its M&A consultation service. By doing so, we shall be able to achieve a synergy effect of our existing services as well.
Background of the business partnership this time
GA technologies started out as a prop tech company with the development and the operation of a total one-step real estate service "RENOSY". We then expanded ourselves into the SaaS development industry, which is the second pillar that supports our business, also known as "ITANDI". We are cultivating our third pillar for our business which is the M&A business by the partnership with MtechA Co., Ltd. in August 2022 as the first step. We believe that by utilizing our tech strengths in this industry is going to allow us to provide a more transparent customer experience to our customers.
The reason why we decided to step into this industry is the market potential of the M&A business. The number of owners looking for business mergers and acquisition opportunities are increasing over the years in Japan due to lack of manpower to succeed the business. Topics of M&A is gaining attention in Japanese society; however, the way the process works is still old-fashioned in this country. By adding the strengths from SPICACONSULTING could speed up our progress in taking more market share.
