Global Brain has invested in Beatrust Inc. (Beatrust), a provider of an organizational search platform for internal open innovation, through its GB-VIII Growth Fund Investment Limited Partnership (GB-VIII). Beatrust develops and provides a new search platform to visualize human resource information and activate collaboration within the organization. As companies around the world seek to balance remote and office work, we believe that new collaboration tools and communication methods are needed to effectively manage hybrid work. Beatrust provides a wide range of services to its customers. Beatrust has acquired a customer base centered on many large enterprises, backed by the development of tag functions that utilize machine learning and a design that actively generates Q&As. The company provides solutions to traditional corporate issues of "not knowing who to ask although someone in the company should know" and need for "connecting with the right people to work on a new project within the company" by visualizing and searching organizations to promote collaboration within the company, thereby enabling users to spend more time on essential business issues. Global Brain has decided to invest in Beatrust because of the company's advanced technical capabilities and the deep industry knowledge of its management team. ## About Beatrust
