Seeing this situation, former J-League soccer professional and current Valuence president Shinsuke Sakimoto felt a strong desire to help athletes. This Recruitment of Dual-Career Athletes project will allow athletes to continue to pursue their dreams of competition while also pursuing a business career, free from anxieties related to post-retirement work opportunities or an unstable livelihood.

Athletes who devote themselves single-mindedly to a sport is the very essence of living true to oneself. We launched this project with the hope that these athletes will not have to worry about the future, and will remain focused on the “now.”
We believe that supporting dual careers for athletes will not only help them achieve their goals, but will also promote diverse work styles and enhance the value of sports. We expect this project to be an opportunity for athletes, for the Valuence Group, and for society to unleash even greater potential.
