Starting a business is filling a hole.
I believe that creating a new business is "finding a hole and filling it. In other words, discovering a social issue and implementing it.
People within the industry don't notice the old holes because they are visible in the landscape. People outside the industry may see a hole, but they don't know how to fill it. I founded my company because I saw a huge hole in the 100 trillion yen market and thought I could fill it.
