Birdman

One-stop marketing and entertainment solutions provider

Overview

Birdman is a Tokyo-listed creative and business solutions firm with two divisions: Marketing Transformation (MX) and Entertainment Transformation (EX). MX delivers end-to-end services from strategy and branding to product development using technologies like IoT and AI, along with market research, UI/UX design, campaigns, and PR, without relying on a single media channel. EX, launched in 2021, expands into entertainment by organizing large events and managing artists, including interactive experiences such as the 5D LIVE. The company differentiates itself by uniting advertising and entertainment under one roof and leveraging in-house production from its BIRDMAN acquisition to create cross-market opportunities for both B2B and B2C growth.
