Matt Ketchum operates at the intersection of traditional Japanese business and its digital future. While the corporate world often views Japan through the lens of established conglomerates, Matt builds within its emerging ecosystems. He represents the pulse of the modern market—fast, digitally native, and culturally integrated.

As the principal of MKUltraman, he provides the operational governance and digital infrastructure that allow independent organizations to scale with authority. His approach is rigorous and standards-driven, bringing clarity to the often opaque world of digital presence management in Japan.

Beyond consulting, Matt is a catalyst for cultural and regional revitalization. Through his venture Kaala Music, he champions creative expression, linking commercial success with tangible social impact in creative communities. With Akiyaz.io, Matt applies his technical prowess to the myriad issues facing rural Japanese communities. This dynamic focus—corporate discipline and creative innovation—provides the Board with a vital perspective on where Japan’s economy is heading next.
