Operates a rental office in Shibuya-ku, Maruyama-cho, entrees support to support the entrepreneurs who, including the IT venture. Yuka Suzuki, also played an entrepreneur with some 24-year-old himself is focusing on the goodness of Shibuya and entrepreneurship of chemistry, we decided the business in Shibuya. Day-to-day, and Shibuya of charm and challenges Suzuki in contact with a number of entrepreneurs struggle to stage the Shibuya talks is.

- Can you tell me the history of up to entrepreneurs of Suzuki.

I graduated from a vocational school of fashion system, after working for advertising agencies and real estate company, founded the S. Jay planning at the time of the 24-year-old. Initially, it was the center of advertising agency and real estate management, float is his idea from the experience "good and there is a office to be feel free to borrow in Shibuya", changed its name in 2000 to the current entree support , we started the rental office in Shibuya. Nowadays in Shibuya There are rental offices of about 10 companies, but at that time, the same skill in the art could not have around. Initially I thought also be operated by the rental property, and also to provide human services such as reception work, inevitably rental fee is high. So was it possible to service at a low price to purchase the current location. Looking back now, I think it was a bold decision with me (laughs).

- Chose Shibuya Will reason was what.

In those days Shibuya was a young IT-related entrepreneur gathering in the middle of the boom of "Bid Valley". Because I was in my twenties, I have a desire to support such a young generation of entrepreneurs. Although it is a little calmer compared to that time, Shibuya's popularity seems persistent for IT-related entrepreneurs. Initially, customers were mainly in their 20s and 30s, but over the past five years more people in their 40s have increased and more than half occupied. There are also people in their 60s in the middle, now 75 years old is the oldest. Against that background, I think there is a qualitative change in the city called Shibuya. Although the image of the city of young people has not changed from long ago, in recent years, SHIBUYA MARKCITY , E space Tower, etc. opened one after another, and the business elements have been strengthened. Therefore, in the past, I think that people of generations who had been shunned as "Shibuya has only young people" gathered. Recent tenants also became noticeable in addition to IT, temporary staffing agencies and financial planners. The reason why entrepreneurship in Shibuya continues in this way is that in addition to the regional nature where cultural elements accumulate and the convenience of transportation, various factors such as the reliability that can be written as "Shibuya Ward" in the address There will be. "I think that I am conscious that Shibuya and entrepreneurs are compatible."

- What point do you feel the fun of the job.

Our rental office, I would want to use as a preparation period of the step-up. When you are ready to be tenants about one year, customers often Ika graduated from here. Oddly enough, then even if still looking for the office in Shibuya, I think I'm in many cases to be Ika moved. Previously, to grow a small company that had been tenants in a few employees, the near future, the story that there is a plan to listing, the other day, and "Do not was good to serve you" when I heard, I was delighted. Some of those who move to another office, from time to time, "I want to remember the basics", also Irasshaimasu come to visit here. In addition, when the customer together a new business was born to tie-up is also a moment when it can be realized that the service to you again. When customers receive a consultation called "looking for this type of business of the company," it will be allowed to or brought together the other residents, every month, also to distribute the community paper to introduce the new tenants, we encourage the exchange of customers to each other.

- Please tell us that you have in mind for the sake of differentiation with other rental office.

All of our staff are women. So, to be human services, also equipment surface, we try to be able to demonstrate a meticulous concern feminine. The residents we men are often, but by our female staff to enter as the intermediary, I think that there is that the soft air is born. By strengthening the kind of direction, we aim to support more and more pleasing to the residents.

- Please tell us about the encounter of the Suzuki-san and Shibuya.

I was brought up in Suginami, who was born in Kichijoji, and I came to Shibuya to buy clothes since I was a high school student. Everything including shopping, meals, amusement facilities, etc. is fulfilling, while a quiet space is spreading when entering in the back. I have been continuing to attract from such a mysterious charm. At first glance it seems like a large city similar to Shinjuku and Ikebukuro, but Shibuya still has a unique fun. Although the image of such whole town has not changed from long ago, the area around Maruyama town currently having a rental office has changed a little. Previously, "Maruyama Town" was a strong image as a hotel street, but recently it is undergoing a transformation as a fashionable space. In 2000 I made " SHIBUYA MARKCITY " and I was able to flow people from Dogenzaka, I think that changed this area greatly.

- Do you have any recommendations to the Shibuya of the city.

Personally, is a very high degree of satisfaction the city but, when viewed from the perspective of entrepreneurship, grants and study sessions due to administrative I think that it is okay also been enhanced more. Such as in the City of Yokohama there is a subsidy to the entrepreneurs first year of the company, it from properly is not uncommon to have established a support system. Shibuya has been widely recognized as a "fashion town", "creator of the city," but, the image I think that weak that still "the city's business." Since the hard surface, such as office buildings and hotels has been gradually increasing, enhancement of the soft surface, such as a support or will not in future challenges.
