Our vision

Being a partner for challenging the status quo

THECOO Co., Ltd. is fighting against the status quo.

Addressing something with passion or being absorbed in one’s tasks might appear uncool, unnecessary and not rewarding, therefore people often choose to just keep things the way they are.

We at THECOO want to break down this kind of situations.
To this end, we want to be a company that has the spirit to start a new era, a shift from maintaining the status quo to restoring it. We will create new businesses and things that we can become passionate about. We are partners to many companies to promote their restoration.

Vision: Keep challenging what can’t be done

Continuing to take on challenges is the most important factor in achieving our mission. So where are we going start? We believe that unexplored areas that nobody has reached are an opportunity for us to tackle new challenges. These fields might be unexplored because they are said to be impossible, or maybe because it is impossible to solve them according to common sense.
In other words, the assumption that something is impossible is leaving some areas unexplored.

We aim to be a company, organization, and people who take on challenges by utilizing our technologies to face challenges that other people consider impossible to tackle.
