Asilla Strengthens Its Management Structure with New Leadership Roles

Asilla's New Management Initiative

Asilla Inc., headquartered in Machida City, Tokyo, is proud to announce significant enhancements to its management structure effective January 1, 2026. These changes include the establishment of a new Chief Development & Operation Officer (CDOO) position, along with the appointments of Yuka Suzuki as the Executive Officer and Chief Product Officer (CPO) and Kan Mimura as the Executive Officer and CDOO.

Founded with a mission to create a safer and more comfortable world through technology, Asilla specializes in security solutions that leverage its proprietary image analysis AI. As the company has expanded its business operations and diversified its implementation scenes, it has become imperative to design products not just based on functional developments, but starting from the essential value for the market and customers, with a continuous evolution approach.

In recent years, the expectation for quality, reproducibility, and speed in operational settings has heightened, necessitating a cohesive decision-making process and execution capabilities that encapsulate both development and operations. To address this demand, Asilla is strengthening its managerial framework to facilitate this vital integration, exemplified by the introduction of the CDOO role.

Yuka Suzuki, stepping into the CPO role, will oversee product design that is customer-centric and integrates technological services. The role emphasizes the need to design from the standpoint of problems to be solved, rather than just capabilities. By shaping the product direction based on an understanding of customer challenges and translating those into specifications and priorities, Suzuki aims to drive value creation directly contributing to business growth.
