Timee CEO x Bristlemoon Webcast
A fireside chat with Timee Founder and CEO Ryo Ogawa
We’re pleased to share that Bristlemoon Capital will be hosting a live webcast discussion with Ryo Ogawa, Founder & CEO of Timee.
Timee is Japan’s leading marketplace for spot-work labour, enabling real-time matching between flexible workers and employers to address the acute labour shortages that exist in Japan. Ryo-san, who launched Timee in 2018 when he was just 21, has scaled the platform to 12.7 million registered workers, reshaping how short-term labour is matched within Japan.
The conversation will be led by George Hadjia, Chief Investment Officer of Bristlemoon Capital, and will explore Timee’s business model, long-term strategy, and the structural forces shaping the flexible labour market in Japan.
For background reading, you may wish to review our most recent December 2025 quarterly letter, which includes our high level investment thesis on Timee and reasons for holding it in the Bristlemoon Global Fund.
