We are pleased to announce that we have decided to provide towel support to Yamato Aoki, the Japanese representative in para-ski alpine skiing.
Yamato Aoki: CEO and Representative Director of EXx, Inc.
In January 2016, he had an accident and suffered spinal cord and cauda equina injuries. In September 2017, he incorporated Aoie and became its representative director, and in 2020, he established EXx Inc. as a spin-out of the mobility business that started in Aoie in 2018. In his personal life, thanks to his rehabilitation, he has recovered to the point where he can ski, to which he devoted his youth. Encouraged by his mentors and friends from middle and high school to take on the challenge of competing in the Paralympics, he began training, aiming to compete in the 2022 Beijing Winter Paralympics and win a medal at the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Paralympics.
We appreciate your support!
