Global Brain has made an additional investment in mov inc. (mov), a provider of the tools to monitor, manage, and analyze online review sites, through its KDDI Open Innovation Fund III (KOIF III).
While consumers have returned to actual stores after the COVID-19 pandemic, store operators are still lagging behind with digital transformation, finding it difficult to manage information posted on review sites and map applications and utilize such information. mov has been developing the tools to monitor, manage, and analyze online review sites and provides a powerful opportunity to improve operations and grow revenue. Most recently, mov has expanded the number of domestic review sites supported by their tools to 19, the largest number in Japan, and has also linked the tools to Dianping.com, taking an important measure to boost inbound consumption.
Global Brain has decided to additionally invest in mov, highly recognizing the leading market solution and its management team with strong business background. Through this investment, Global Brain together with KDDI will support the further business expansion of mov.
