Takram values design-driven innovation culture. Innovation comes with risks, and there are countless accidents in the process of creating businesses. In Takram, we are working to create a culture that prevents serious accidents by openly disclosing the possibilities of accidents so that members can learn from each other and ensure psychological safety. In the wake of that culture-making episode, we will introduce Takram’s technology-design hybrid projects and Takram’s design philosophy, “Pendulum Thinking.”
