Koei Tecmo, the renowned Japanese gaming company, has announced a significant leadership change with Hisashi Koinuma stepping into the role of chief executive officer beginning April 1st, 2025. Prior to this appointment, Koinuma served as the chief operating officer and held the titles of president and general manager within the entertainment division.
In a strategic move to optimize its operations, Koei Tecmo is reorganizing into two separate entities: Koei Tecmo Games and Koei Tecmo Corporate Finance. This split is part of a broader plan to enhance specialization and efficiency within their business structure.
The company shared its ambitious vision with shareholders, emphasizing a commitment to becoming the leading force in digital entertainment globally, guided by their core values of “creativity and contribution.”
Koei Tecmo has been methodically preparing for this transition by engaging with the Nomination and Compensation Committee to lay the groundwork for the new generation of leadership. The objective is clear: to drive substantial growth and improve profitability for the company, a goal they aim to achieve with the implementation of this new management framework starting in fiscal year 2025.
