From Revolution board of directors
We are dedicated to SHU
We cautiously and humbly encourage HA
We aspire to RI
We respect and value the work of our predecessors
We embrace innovation
We originate creativity
We abide
It is known that, when we learn or train in something, we pass through the stages of SHU, HA, and RI. These stages are explained as follows. In SHU, we repeat the forms and discipline ourselves so that our bodies absorb the forms that our forebears created. We remain faithful to these forms with no deviation. Next, in the stage of HA, once we have disciplined ourselves to acquire the forms and movements, we make innovations. In this process the forms may be broken and discarded. Finally, in RI, we completely depart from the forms, open the door to creative technique, and arrive in a place where we act in accordance with what our heart/mind desires, unhindered while not overstepping laws.

Chairman and Representative Director Takafumi Okamoto
I would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the stakeholders who always support us.
Two years have passed since we introduced the concepts of “SHU” “HA” “RI” as REVOLUTION’s corporate philosophy.
The company recovered its profitability, rapidly moving onto our growth phase. This means that we have transitioned from the “SHU” stage to the “HA” stage.
Please welcome John Fou, an investment professional, as our new CEO. He will lead our vision to transform into one of Japan’s leading real estate and investment companies.
As Chairman, I will commit to improving our relationship with investors and further everyone’s understanding of our REAL REVOLUTION.
Chief Executive Officer and Representative Director John Fou
Thank you to all our stakeholders for their support.
My mission is to grow REVOLUTION into one of Japan’s leading real estate and investment companies and resume dividend payments as quickly as possible.
Over the last two years we have changed rapidly. For our upcoming “HA” stage, we will realize the potential of all our employees and build a foundation to maximize profits. In collaboration with our Chairman, I promise growth and success in our “HA” stage.
On top of that, our goal is to actively leverage our networks with financial institutions around the world, and to enter the “RI” stage of extraordinary profits as soon as possible.
Please look forward to our REAL REVOLUTION.
We will achieve beyond everyone’s expectation.
