wib Inc., founded in 2018, announced its rebrand to THINK Partners Co., Ltd. effective June 1, 2026. The name embodies the company's philosophy of serving as a 'thinking partner' for businesses navigating the AI era. CEO Yuta Watari explained that during its first eight fiscal periods, wib operated as a small-scale extension of his personal business. Growth accelerated with the October 2023 launch of the SUGOSUGI series, starting with 'Sugo-Shiryo,' now adopted by over 200 companies. In 2026, the company released AI consulting service 'Shikumika' and plans to launch community platform 'Core Connect' in July 2026. The rebrand reflects a commitment to organized growth and providing value that AI alone cannot replace. The headquarters moves from Taito-ku Kojima 2-19-10 to Taito-ku Taito 4-22-4 Espal Heim 602, where the firm plans to host study sessions and networking events.
