DATAFLUCT Appoints Yuta Sugii as Executive Officer to Lead AI Agent Division

DATAFLUCT's Strategic Leadership Change

In a significant update, DATAFLUCT, a data-driven solution provider based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has announced the appointment of Yuta Sugii as Executive Officer and Head of the AI Agent Division, effective September 1, 2025. This strategic move aims to advance the company's business development in the AI agent space, bolstering its foundational operations.

Profile of the New Executive Officer

Yuta Sugii previously joined a major SI firm as an engineer, where he was instrumental in addressing business challenges through IT solutions for enterprise clients. Since his transition to DATAFLUCT, he has leveraged his technical expertise within BizDev to propel digital transformation (DX) and effective data utilization for client companies. His efforts have fostered solutions grounded in cutting-edge technologies like AI agents, and he has worked closely with diverse industries to ensure successful project implementations.

Sugii's commitment centers on transforming vast amounts of data—which humans cannot process—into meaningful insights, thus supporting effective decision-making and automating processes. He highlights that AI is entering a new phase of learning from extensive language resources, positioning itself as a crucial tool for refining knowledge accumulated over time. By overcoming language barriers and integrating various modes of information, AI agents significantly enhance their utility across various applications.

Insights on Sustainable Value Creation

However, Sugii notes that merely enhancing model performance will not yield long-lasting value. Establishing a robust operational harness entails close collaboration with model providers and partners, effective governance and assessment standards, workflow orchestration, as well as ongoing monitoring and security measures.

Expressing gratitude, Sugii stated, "I appreciate your support as I embark on this journey. I am committed to expanding our business and fostering social implementation with integrity and accountability."

Since joining in 2021, Sugii has been pivotal in realizing the goal of building business intelligence (BI) through dialogue. His ardent pursuit of cutting-edge AI technologies and commitment to self-directed learning have positioned him as a key figure within the company. Kume-mura acknowledged Sugii's significant contributions to product growth through persistent effort, which has built trust among major clients, especially in sectors like construction, real estate, and building management.
