Business idea in short

Educational services that make it possible to learn high-quality knowledge easily and comprehensibly.

Social issue to tackle | Business concept

We aim to improve the knowledge level of society as a whole by developing a web service that allows even people with little expertise to learn high-quality knowledge in “5 minutes” and with “illustrations.
This will raise the level of knowledge in society as a whole, and create a world where people can actively practice solving social issues with their knowledge power.

Motivation

I have been aware of the problems of destruction of nature and extinction of wildlife, and conducted research and activities until graduate school. I realized that “education that conveys high-quality knowledge in an easy-to-understand manner” is the basis for solving social issues, and I decided to apply for this program in order to realize this.
