Total coordinator
Chikako Tsuda
After joining Hankyu Corporation, I worked in the railway and human resources departments before getting involved in startup support in 2017. I primarily focus on managing and operating FUTRWORKS, while also collaborating with startups both domestically and internationally. My goal is to make FUTRWORKS a hub for international exchange in Umeda by coordinating various aspects of its facilities.
I can’t stop being curious and adventurous about everything. Currently, I release my energy by doing Tahitian dancing on weekends. If you happen to see me on the stage wearing a beautiful tropical costume, please cheer me on. Let’s dance together! I also enjoy wearing traditional Japanese clothing and have been really enjoying a global lifestyle both personally and professionally in recent years.

Collaborator
Takazumi Tanaka
In my previous job at a railway-related real estate company in Tokyo, I was involved in the management of shared rental housing, planning and sales of condominiums and renovated houses, and brand promotion. Since July 2024, I started working at Hankyu Hanshin Properties, where I am in charge of supporting FUTRWORKS and other tasks.
I moved from Tokyo to Osaka due to my marriage. It’s been 12 years since I last lived in Kansai, and I am rediscovering the city of Osaka with all my senses every day.I have always loved the unique culture and the sense of closeness with people that is characteristic of the Kansai region. I dream of watching Hanshin Tigers games at Koshien Stadium after work. If you see me around, feel free to play catch ball!
