“We want to create things that do not yet exist in the world using local power.” The manufacturing network in the Chubu region, “KASANE,” began with this sentiment. When master craftsmen from different industries based in the Chubu region bring their respective strengths and technologies to “layer” (kasane) them together, what will begin, and what will be born? Like-minded partners have gathered with the aim of creating new value that defies the conventional wisdom of manufacturing. We, Make Start, also participate in this KASANE network. With our proprietary precision machining technology as the core, we joined hands with local woodworkers, metal processors, and designers to complete “MUQU,” a golf club brand milled from solid iron.

This is not merely product development; it is a symbol of “manufacturing co-creation” where regional technology and ideas fuse. Within a flat relationship of trust between companies, ideas are exchanged naturally, and cooperation expands as needed. Meanwhile, through collaboration with research institutions including universities, we develop solution-oriented technologies and products. In addition to proposing joint research themes to students and deepening cooperative relationships with local universities, we also contribute to local government measures such as the digital preservation of cultural assets. Thinking together, working hands-on together, and sharing results with local companies and research institutions. We will continue to accumulate these experiences to generate value that connects our region to the world.
