Koei Tecmo, a well-known Japanese gaming company, is gearing up for some exciting changes with the appointment of Hisashi Koinuma as their new CEO. Koinuma, who will officially step into this role on April 1, 2025, has been making waves as the chief operating officer, as well as leading the charge as president and general manager of the company’s entertainment division.
In a strategic move to streamline operations, Koei Tecmo has announced that it will divide into two distinct entities: Koei Tecmo Games and Koei Tecmo Corporate Finance. This decision comes as part of their ambitious drive to ascend as the global leader in digital entertainment, guided by their core principles of “creativity and contribution.”
The company’s commitment to innovation and growth remains steadfast. As they communicated to their shareholders, the organization has been diligently planning for this management transition. Through strategic discussions within the Nomination and Compensation Committee, they’ve laid the groundwork for this significant shift.
“Our aim is to unlock new levels of growth and profitability,” Koei Tecmo stated, emphasizing that this fresh management structure, set to begin in the fiscal year 2025, is a pivotal step towards achieving their ambitious goals.
