Model Case

01Service DesignCreating Customer
Flight Experiences

To deliver space sightseeing flights to more customers as a highly valuable experience, we combine corporate assets to enhance the service value of flight products and pioneer new markets in space. As of November 2025, JTB Corp. has joined as a co-creation partner in the travel sector.

02PR & MarketingDelivering New Value
to the world

By freely utilizing the highly newsworthy assets of space sightseeing for PR and marketing, we convey the unique value of the space sightseeing worldview to the public. Experience videos, cabins used in flights, and flight experience rights can be employed as advertising campaign materials, promotional prizes, and content services for companies.

03Technology DevelopmentCreating New
Aerospace Technologies

Next-generation cabins, operational systems, and new service experiences will revolutionize the technology and experiential value of space sightseeing.
Products, systems, and materials such as communication devices, sensing equipment, launch site facilities, and control systems can be introduced into flight development, serving as an R&D and verification platform for entry into the aerospace market.

04Business ExpansionExtending the number of
Launch Sites Worldwide

We build partnerships with domestic and international companies and organizations to increase the number of launch sites for space sightseeing flights.
By leveraging corporate networks and local assets, partners can participate in business expansion through diverse forms and schemes such as local mediation and collaboration support, jointly developing regional economic zones and expanding franchises to locations abroad.
