Nobuhiko joined Nippon Telegraph and Telephone in 1997. In his 19 years at one of the world’s largest providers of information and communications technology — during which he had a seconded assignment as a trade policy official for the Japanese government — he gained experience in areas including internet engineering, regulatory affairs, and global marketing.
