TOKYO – November 19, 2018 – Seven Dreamers (official name: seven dreamers laboratories, inc.; head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Shin Sakane), a technology group dedicated to creating totally novel, world-first products, has reached agreement with I.S.T Corporation (head office: Shiga Prefecture; CEO: Toshiko Sakane) on the transfer in entirety of its fully order-made carbon golf shaft business to I.S.T. The two companies have signed a contract concerning transfer of the business on November 16, 2018.
1. Background
Seven Dreamers has long engaged in the development of totally novel products irrespective of business fields with the aim of providing technologies that enrich people’s lives. After beginning development in 2012, the company launched its first carbon business sales in Japan in March 2014 as Seven Dreamers. It has actively expanded this business to China, Southeast Asia, USA, and other countries, and has developed a large following among golfers.
Seven Dreamers decided to transfer its business to I.S.T Corporation because it felt that I.S.T with its outstanding R&D capabilities in the field of high-performance materials would be able to further hone the development of its carbon golf shaft products, and contribute something fresh to golfers’ enjoyment of the sport by probing the possibilities for providing new services. Please note that even after transfer of the business, Seven Dreamers will continue to be the brand name of the carbon golf shafts, and product and service operations will remain unchanged.
