On this occasion, we will introduce brand new token services. We publish token called MIPS by innovating copyright systems and tip systems.

Our resources of video streaming technologies and the platforms of ticket sales are going to be offered for the effective collaboration.

2.About Us: NEXTAGE Co., Ltd.
Our mission is “creating the future for performers”.
In our definition, “PERFORMERS” are everyone who engage in theatre.
We believe in the powerfulness of creations by performers. Theatre performances often encourage audiences to change their lives just like the experiences of Manabu Fukui, the founder of NEXTAGE. However, today, most of the performers struggle in financial hardship. Because of this situations, some of performers have no choice but to give up their creative activities. That is why we focus on theatre artists to solve the issue.

“FUTURE” for performers is the world they are able to concentrate on their productions in substantial financial conditions. In order to make it real, more fulfilling earnings structures are necessary.

So, how will we “CREATE” the future?

Firstly, we must aim to increase the population of people who love to watch theatre plays. We offer opportunities for people to get to know more about theatre performances through online services. Our IT services enabled us to provide the performers to gain the income source other than running shows. We would like to make the entire theatre industry more active, powerful, and successful in the society.
