Startbahn Inc. (Headquarters: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Taihei Shii; hereinafter “Startbahn”) announces that an interview featuring CEO Taihei Shii and COO Keisuke Ota has been published on Future Talent Studio.

The interview looks back on the changes in the Web3 market following the NFT boom and discusses Startbahn’s approach to building long-term infrastructure rather than pursuing short-term trends. It also explains why Startbahn has expanded its scope beyond fine art to culture as a whole, including manga, anime, traditional crafts, and general consumer goods.

In addition, the interview explores Startbahn’s thinking around value succession through provenance, automated revenue distribution enabled by stablecoins, and a business model centered on redefining lifetime value (LTV) from the perspective of products rather than customers.

Startbahn continues to focus on building infrastructure that enables value to accumulate and circulate over time, rather than being consumed and exhausted. Through its work, the company aims to support cultural assets across a wide range of domains and contribute to a more sustainable value ecosystem.

The article highlights Startbahn’s challenge to rethink the structure of value itself and outlines how the company views future competitive advantages in the evolving Web3 landscape.
