DeNA struggled and decided to shik their emphasis from PC to mobile in 2002. In 2005, when the mobile auc:on service was just star:ng to take off, the company got an idea called “mobile social gaming plasorm”.

I. Define target market
• First of all, make sure that you have a passion to do business in the target market.
• Emerging business area is good, but not limited to so long as you and your folks have a passion for the business area(*).
(*) For example, a UK manufacturer, “Dyson” successfully entered the vacuum cleaner market, a saturated market, with cuVng-‐edge technologies. He had worked as a licenser for 14 years a[er designing prototype, then established Dyson Ltd.
