Tokyo, November 12, 2019 --- D.A.Consortium Inc. (DAC) is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement with the U.S. company NeoReach Inc. (NeoReach) to sublicense the NeoReach platform for the Japanese market. NeoReach develops and provides an influencer marketing database platform that can be used across all major social media.

The market for influencer marketing is growing on a global scale each year. In the past, client companies could only obtain detailed influencer information or conduct demographic analyses of followers for one specific social media platform at a time. However, NeoReach has succeeded in providing this information across multiple social media platforms simultaneously. With this data, the NeoReach platform helps client companies effectively select optimal influencers and casting for high-precision, target- reach influencer marketing. NeoReach has been used by numerous major brands worldwide since 2013. As a strategic partner, DAC will support the Japan market introduction of NeoReach by providing consulting services to optimize the UI (user interface) and UX (user experience)(*1) for the Japan market, by developing new business models and by conducting sales.
