Background of the Event

In the course of operating its matching service for freelancers and companies, TechBiz has actively supported the career development of current and aspiring freelancers. Many consultations involve concerns about long-term careers, such as "I'm worried about consistently securing projects" and "I can't envision career advancement as a freelancer."

In response to these voices, "TECHBIZ MEETUP!" is held as a venue to gain hints for thriving as a freelancer, new perspectives, and learning opportunities. By inviting guests active in various fields, we provide participants with an opportunity to reflect on their own careers and gain insights for future career formation.

Both speakers have experienced various positions and tasks and are currently active in management roles. Mr. Ryoshige Tsuji will speak on "How to Draw a Career Where Dots Connect," based on his diverse experiences as an engineer, CTO, and national public servant.

Mr. Kenta Horie, head of the MARKETINGBIZ business, will share hints on how to continue thriving while broadening one's perspective in a rapidly changing era, through his experiences as a web designer, marketer, and business leader.

- Individuals currently working as freelancers but struggling with their future career path. - Those interested in freelancing but lacking a clear image of how to work. - Individuals seeking to re-evaluate their skills and career. - Those looking for new stimulation and learning opportunities towards the latter half of 2026.

About TechBiz Co., Ltd.

TechBiz operates "TECHBIZ," one of Japan's largest agencies for IT freelancers, under the slogan "Changing the way we work, changing the world."

Through high-quality matching based on both technical and human skills by dedicated consultants, we achieve an approximately 96% operational continuation rate. We support freelancers with long-term, stable work styles and environments where they can work autonomously, and companies with sustainable business growth through solutions for management challenges such as labor shortages and DX.

We view freelancers as important "human capital" and aim to create new ways of working that contribute to the revitalization of the entire Japanese economy by advocating the new concept of "Social Sharing of Human Capital," where their value is shared throughout society.
