The name of the company I'm going to discuss is Softbank Group. First of all why did I choose this company, because my experience with the founder is very similar, we also studied in the United States, but he caught the beginning of an era. I think that this kind of courage to try new things makes me feel very admired.
Softbank Group was founded in 1981 in Kyoto, Tokyo, Japan, by Masayoshi Son. In the early days of its establishment in 1981, SoftBank's main business was software distribution. The term "distribution" refers to acting as a middleman, buying software in bulk from software manufacturers and then selling it to end users or retailers. SoftBank's success in this area was due in part to the rapid growth in demand for computers and their applications in Japan at the time. One of the best choices that Masayoshi Son made was to form a joint venture with Yahoo, an American Internet company, to establish Yahoo Japan. Since then, SoftBank has expanded its business to include telecommunications, Internet services, artificial intelligence and technology investments.
I would use financial and business news sites such as Bloomberg, Reuters, CNBC or the Financial Times as these platforms usually provide up-to-date and detailed reports about large companies such as the SoftBank Group. For Public Information from the Company’s Official Channel, Checking SoftBank Group's official website, specifically the Investor Relations section (SoftBank Group IR), where they publish press releases, financial reports, and details about important corporate events.
Two aspects to focus on in project and my timeline is about company history and structure, and economic overview, because the two are linked inextricably. I will delve more deeply into the history and structure of the company, as for the economic overview it will cover the investment industries of many of the company's subsidiaries and the overall economic overview of the company. I'll be adding some economic charts to my final project.
For me my potential problems and challenges with this project are: the company is involved in a diverse business as a lot of time will be spent on making sure the information is accurate.
