HEART BEAT

AlphaDrive Inc. President and CEO Yoichi Aso

Artwork Description

Entrepreneurs are very similar to artists. The "business" that entrepreneurs start is an activity that solves customer problems, wishes happiness for all stakeholders, and works to the bone, working in a sort of self-sacrificing way toward a flag that is raised for the good of the world. However, I'm sure that the basis of all entrepreneurs' entrepreneurial journeys is not so neat. It is because of the thick desire and explosive impulse that they cannot suppress no matter how hard they try that they are able to take on a gamble that will put their whole life on the line. HEAR BEAT is a work that uses a heart motif to express the desires and impulses that I have inside me that I cannot express neatly in words. Impulses that cannot be suppressed no matter who tries to stop them or what obstacles there are. I would be happy if this work can make you feel a sense of hope and brilliance that will never fade, no matter what difficulties or suffering you may face in the future.
