## About Our Company
PR TIMES is a company whose business domain is PR (Public Relations), and whose core business is the development and operation of the press release distribution service "PR TIMES," toward the realization of our corporate mission, "An era where information originating from those who take action moves people's hearts." We operate multiple businesses, including early-stage SaaS and media operations.
"Press releases," which we handle, were traditionally limited to materials used only by the media as documents for reporting. However, the role and credibility of press releases are now expanding, and they are not only enjoyed as news by consumers, but also allow companies to officially and most quickly disseminate, as primary information, their corporate activities and the activities of individuals who are active within their organizations.
We know that behind every press release announcement, there is the struggle of an incredible number of people within the company who plan and develop products and services and go through trial and error toward the announcement. We know that there are passionate workplaces and individuals who support them. We call such everyday, familiar individuals who are present everywhere "action-takers," and we want to create a society and future where many people can feel that it is individual actions that move the world.
Users who submit to PR TIMES are often corporate PR staff, but we consider all the people who work in the organization that created the opportunity to distribute press releases to be our true customers. Overall, we have been blessed with customers and partner companies, and have continued to achieve consecutive years of revenue growth and profitability for 18期 in a row. Perhaps it is not yet a reality that many people believe, such as "my work becoming news." That is precisely why we want to prove through our business that PR (Public Relations) has the power to empower action-takers and can become a source of vitality for all industries.
