Our CEO, Toshi Maeda, was recently featured in an in-depth interview on The Leader, a CEO and corporate interview platform operated by Kaigai FX.

The interview traces Maeda’s journey through the global media industry — from his formative years as a student, to his career as an international journalist, and ultimately to his role as founder and CEO of Pacific Bridge Media & Consulting (PBMC), which he established in 2010 to help bridge between Japan and the rest of the world through trusted content.

The article explores his motivations for founding PBMC, the company’s core services, and its mission to bridge Japanese companies, organizations, and ideas with audiences around the world. It also highlights his professional challenges and experiences, as well as JStories, the multilingual, solutions-driven media outlet he launched in 2022 to spotlight innovation and social impact emerging from Japan.
