description: "「Franchise Ship (フランチャイズ シップ）」に則って！\nどこの企業の社長にきいてもベンチャー・リンクグループの元社員は非常に優秀だと聞く。 入社前からの資質がいいのか？入社後の会社の社員教育が良かったのか\n中で仕事をしていた私からすると、答えはひとつ\nそのどちらでもない\n社内の環境が人を創った"

In accordance with the Franchise Ship!

July 25, 2015 Three years have passed since the civil rehabilitation of my former employer, Venture Link.

Even though the company is no longer in existence, the former warriors are still scattered throughout various companies.

Ask the presidents of any company and you will hear that the former employees of the Venture Link Group are extremely talented. Are their qualities good from before they joined the company? Was the company's employee training after they joined good? I am often asked such questions.  
From my perspective, who worked inside the company, the answer is one.  
It is neither of those things.

The environment within the company created the people!

It comes down to this one word.

So what is the environment? Is it the employee training provided by the company? Language training?

I don't think there was any such thing.

What do I mean by environment?　It is something created by people.  
It is not created by a single person but by people interacting with each other to create an environment, which in turn interacts with other people to become a catalyst and create a new environment.  
This is the chain.

Many of the members had the same qualities.  
Even though they were company employees, when they went out for a drink, they never talked about their dreams for the future or bad-mouthed the company or their bosses.  
Everyone enjoyed every day and enjoyed their work. From morning to night.  
It was not so much fun as enjoyment. Of course, there was pain and hardship, but it was a pleasure to be able to enjoy all of it. The joy of growing up.

It is not just a momentary enjoyment of going golfing and drinking, but a real enjoyment. Such an atmosphere. It was a unique atmosphere.  
It is impossible to experience it now, but the employees who have gone independent are creating that atmosphere in their own companies.

I started a new project in the latter half of July, and I have had many opportunities to meet with many of the member stores who helped me during my time at Prime Link and Venture Link.

I am grateful to all of them for their willingness to spend time with me.  
We have former VL and PL employees who are really good and helpful. It makes me happy every time I hear this!  
The company may be gone, but its philosophy remains.

On July 26, we welcomed "Nobuhiko Matsumoto," who served as the last president of the company, as a member of our board of directors. He has returned to society after three years of "purification" in his own way.  
I think he has a lot of things he wants to do. We will steadily and surely advance them little by little.  
First of all, he has started greeting those who have helped him and reporting on what he will do in the future.

He has begun to speak the words "franchise ship.  
Sportsmanship, partnership 、、、、、 (~ness, what it should be)

The image of the word "franchise" in Japan is worse than in other countries.  
The image of an exploitative business, such as a convenience store, like a pyramid scheme, remains.

The business is conducted in accordance with the "franchise ship" principle.  
Both the head office side and the franchisee side.

This is the keyword we would like to use for our new project.  
There are still many aspects of this project that I cannot tell you about, but we are making steady progress, and I would like to disclose them when I am ready to report them to you.

This is what I felt during my trip to Japan.

Thank you very much for your cooperation!

On the plane to Singapore.

Our background In 1991, we started the business that was not yet found in Japan, or even in the world. That business was to become an agency who provides franchise store-development service. We came up with the idea to persuade companies to join a franchise as their new business; our target was not individuals, but the small and medium-sized enterprises who already established with their businesses. With that as a start, we managed to expand over 30 franchise brands including various restaurant brands i.e. Bakery Restaurant St.Marc(650 uint in Japan, BBQ “Gyu-kaku”(850 unit in Japan), Katsudon “Katsuya”(350 unit in Japan), Sushi delivery “Gin-no Sara”(730 unit in Japan), and from other hospitality business categories i.e. Second-hand automobile dealer “Gulliver”(450 unit in Japan), Second-hand golf club dealer “Golf Partner”(350 unit in Japan), Women’s fitness club “Curves” (2,000 unit in Japan as a master franchisor of the American brand), by selling new businesses to small to medium-sized enterprises in Japan. Number of the stores we successfully opened are over 8000 ! During this time, in 1996, Akira has established a company, Prime Link Co.Ltd., to start a business that we become franchisee ourselves to grow the business. In 2001, Prime Link Co, Ltd., became the very first franchise business company that is listed on the stock market(Nasdaq Japan). In 2006, Akira left Prime Link and started our company, Assentia Holdings, Inc. In 2010, Akira has established Assentia Holdings PTE. Ltd. in Singapore, and started the business to connect Japan and the world. During the last 5 years, our client’s franchise stores have spread in 19 countries（180 unit) in the world. Japanese food business and Japanese-style service are catching a great deal of attention from the world. Our work is spreading out from Asia to Oceania, Middle Eastern, Europe and North, Central and South America. Published a business book "Gain F&B franchise business opportunities in Asia"
