OUR STORY
Ikitaria began with the meeting of Giovanni Frattari and Ikuya Odaka—two distinct professional journeys with complementary strengths. Their collaboration shaped a boutique advisory model built on cultural precision, strategic thinking, and practical execution.
THE TEAM
Leads project development on the Italian side. With experience in international B2B relationship management and market positioning, he coordinates the Italian team's operations and commercial development trajectories, including market entry processes for foreign markets.
Leads strategic and cultural alignment on the Japanese side. His in-depth knowledge of the Japanese market — contact networks, relational dynamics, and implicit cultural codes — ensures contextual accuracy and the quality of every professional introduction.
APPROACH
Every project is structured so the client's identity remains authentic in the new cultural context — without distortion or over-simplification.
Lasting value comes from the quality of professional bonds, not the speed of transactions. Every introduction is deliberate.
We understand the implicit codes of both markets: communication styles, decision-making rhythms, unspoken expectations.
We work with a broad time horizon. Our goal is to build solid structures, not just execute one-off assignments.
