ﾒBEEﾓ of CROSS-BEE represents hard working and diligent. One of our missions is to contribute to society by working diligently and honest. In addition, bees have very small bodies, but can be very sharp. In the positive way, we will continue to bring our sharp point of views to Sports Business Industry.
Executives
Minoru Kanzaki, Chief Executive Officer
Since I was a young boy, all I wanted to do was to play baseball. In high school, my goal was to go to Koshien (National Championship), and in college days, join the well-known baseball team at Waseda University and play at Jingu (College National Championship). When I had to choose my career, I had a hard time deciding either to go in the direction of professional baseball, or business professional. Well, I chose to be a business professional.
10 years later, I started thinking about my life again, and looked for the ﾒtrue meﾓ. I contemplated what I could do, what I had to do and most of all what I really wanted to do, and as a result, I decided to pursue to be a business professional in Sports/Baseball Industry in 1999.
Japanese Sports Business Industry has had reputation of small market compared to Western countries. However, I strongly believe our team ﾐ special talents, can make it happen with our passion and expertise. It is who does it, not what we do.
One of my missions is to leave legacy that future Sports Business professionals will always remember.
Takaaki Nakamura, Executive Director
In this world, what can truly give you courage and move your heart?
I believe Sports has the power. It is undeniable by just looking at the fact that people of all races; nationalities, religions and languages overcome the differences.
On the other hand, when we look at Sports as business, does it have as much influence? I believe the Sports Business has the potential, but I have to say it still has so much to grow.
CROSS-BEE Co.,Ltd. faces the reality. As we strive to deliver passion of sports, we also create win-win situations for all stakeholders and contribute to improve Sports Business Industry as a whole.
Takayuki Yahiro, Executive Director
In the USA, Sports Business Industry is as large as, if not larger than, the automobile industry. In Japan, except for a few popular sports, most of the sports are just extensions of physics at school which are positioned to be far away from business culture. However, currently, it seems that the attention towards Sports Business has been raised based on some changes in the industry - many athletes in baseball, soccer, golf, etc seek opportunities overseas, and some leagues and teams have started implementing Western style of on-field and off-field management. In the meantime, there seems to be many young talents that are interested in Sports Marketing, Sports Management and Sports Agents in result of more media exposure.
Our domains, Athlete Management, Marketing, Media and Merchandisingﾉ We believe we can create a new synergistic business model by integrating all these domains. CROSS-BEE, leading company of Sports Industry, we would like to bring new perspectives.
