The vision behind this company is far bigger than it looks. Even though the project of the company shares a close connection with the Japanese tennis player, the CAA might add color to the growth. She talked about her clear dream and vision regarding the media company.

Naomi Osaka’s Hana Kuma vision

Last year, she raised $5 million for her company in April. During that time, in a candid interview, she expressed her desire for her company to become a remarkable production company and shared her vision for the same.

She stated, “I’d say the dream is obviously to become a really amazing production company. I don’t know, it’s just to see how far it goes. I think I’ve been inspired by a lot of people.” Along with that, she also talked about how her childhood dream of becoming a tennis player never had anything to do with the idea of starting a production company. But with the growing time, she decided she wanted it and was giving her 100% into it.
