Hiroshi Matsuyama
Since the early nineties, Fukuoka has built a reputation as a center of high quality design, video production and, more recently, software and multimedia production. This month, we’re pleased to introduce Hiroshi Matsuyama, President of Cyberconnect2. Cyberconnect2 is a video game developer with sales of over a million and a half games worldwide, including the smash hit series, .hack//. Matsuyama is proud to base his company of seventy-plus employees in Fukuoka. Thanks to his work, Fukuoka’s young programmers and designers no longer have to leave for Tokyo or Osaka to find quality career opportunities ﾐ Matsuyama is creating them right here.
