In Japan's digital market, there is a significant shortage of skills in understanding and actualizing the purpose and vision (WHY?) held by top management of large corporations. This gap often leads to a disconnect between management and implementation teams, resulting in outcomes (WHAT) that do not align with client intentions, often due to excessive reliance on vendors. Consequently, many services created do not resonate with business users or consumers.
ICMG Digital addresses this challenge by bridging the purpose and vision (WHY?) of management with the power of digital (HOW), aiming to connect as a "galactic cluster of DX" across various digital domains. We select stars from internal and external sources to guide clients' visions to success using the power of digital technology.

What We Do
In Japan's digital market, there is a significant shortage of skills in understanding and actualizing the purpose and vision (WHY?) held by top management of large corporations. This gap often leads to a disconnect between management and implementation teams, resulting in outcomes (WHAT) that do not align with client intentions, often due to excessive reliance on vendors. Consequently, many services created do not resonate with business users or consumers.
ICMG Digital addresses this challenge by bridging the purpose and vision (WHY?) of management with the power of digital (HOW), aiming to connect as a "galactic cluster of DX" across various digital domains. We select stars from internal and external sources to guide clients' visions to success using the power of digital technology.
