Shibuya, a popular gathering spot for IT entrepreneurs, has been known as "bit valley" for some 20 years since around 2000. Shibuya is not only home to IT companies that have grown into mega-ventures, but has evolved into the district where numerous startup companies converge.CyberAgent has developed and deployed numerous internet services from its headquarters in Shibuya, thriving on the energy of this area that attracts young digital natives. This year, however, in response to the expansion and scattering of its offices due to ever-expanding business, the company decided to consolidate its operations into two offices in Shibuya. CyberAgent is committed to continuing to develop world-class "Made in Shibuya" services from its offices in Shibuya, which continues to be an influential source of cutting-edge culture among young people.

Under our vision "to create the 21st century's leading company," we at CyberAgent have, since our inception, worked to expand business in the fast-changing internet industry by honing our ability to 'adapt to change' and also drawing on our advantages in 'talent', 'technology' and 'creation'. Internet TV station "AbemaTV," which launched in April 2016, has already achieved over 45 million downloads in just three and a half years. It has also received positive feedback for its ability to provide value as an infrastructure for spreading emergency info in the event of disaster as a smartphone-based form of mass media. While growing our media business into the next mid- to long-term pillar after our advertising and gaming businesses, CyberAgent is dedicated to continue creating social value through activities that include next-generation engineer training and sports support, and striving to achieve the kind of sustainable management that will lead us to a new stage of growth.
