Goofy Enhances Support in Kansai by Utilizing WeWork LINKS UMEDA

Goofy Expands Its Support in Kansai Through WeWork LINKS UMEDA

Goofy, a leading company based in Chuo, Tokyo, specializing in the implementation and operational support of SFA/CRM tools, has announced the commencement of its partnership with WeWork LINKS UMEDA. This initiative aims to bolster support in the Kansai region, addressing the growing needs of local customers.

Background to Using WeWork LINKS UMEDA

As the demand for support from our customers in the Kansai region continues to rise, Goofy is committed to providing more localized assistance. Although system development can typically be completed online, the ability to quickly address customer needs in person is pivotal to building trust. In an era where online interaction is prevalent, we understand the value of offline connections and strive to enhance our services accordingly.

According to Co-CEOs Yamamoto Kyohei and Tamaki Hikaru, this strategic move signifies Goofy’s dedication to maintaining robust client relationships, especially in the Kansai area, and emphasizes their commitment to quality service delivery.

Why Umeda?

Umeda serves as a vital commercial hub within the Kansai region, attracting numerous significant enterprises, banks, securities firms, commercial agencies, and consulting firms. Additionally, many companies aiming for nationwide and global expansion tend to establish their western Japan bases in this area, making it an ideal location for Goofy’s new office.

Our Concept of WeWork

WeWork, which commenced its operations in Japan in February 2018, is now managed by WWJ Corporation, a 100% subsidiary of SoftBank Corporation established in January 2024. With flexible office solutions across approximately 40 locations in seven cities nationwide, WeWork fosters a collaborative community that transcends industry barriers, bringing together startups, large enterprises, municipal entities, and nonprofit organizations.

Goofy is participating in WeWork’s shared workspace program, primarily utilizing the facilities at WeWork LINKS UMEDA. This setup allows Goofy to leverage a robust infrastructure while ensuring top-notch service for their clients.
