Enlighten Research Studio(ERS)is a Kyoto-based research organization dedicated to leadership, talent strategy, and global business development. We bridge international perspectives with local contribution, conducting research that connects global insight with community impact.

ERS supports organizations in strengthening leadership, enhancing organizational capability, and co-creating new visions and strategies for sustainable growth.

In partnership with KT&M Corporation, a real estate consulting firm, we also explore regional revitalization and cultural bridging through the adaptive reuse of real estate resources. Our work addresses issues such as vacant houses, new residential models, and community development—contributing to local society through concrete, hands-on projects.

In addition,_Okazaki Optical Research Institute is devoted to the historical study of optical and camera technologies. By exploring the history of classic cameras, lenses, and photographic techniques—while conducting real-world shooting experiments—it preserves and shares this valuable heritage with a wider audience.

Through these diverse fields of research and practice, ERS continues to create value for society—linking past and present, business and community—to help build a sustainable future together.
