Insights
Strategic NGO partnerships broaden rYojbaba's service footprint but depend on execution, local regulation, and measurable uptake.
rYojbaba links its osteopathic clinic network and legal consulting services to Koyamada International Foundation and Guardian Girls International, creating a clear route to serve program participants and affiliated communities. The company will offer medical care and recovery support via licensed judo therapists and pursue collaborations with sports bodies and educational institutions to expand clinic access. It also plans a Free Labor Union Program to deliver free online legal advice on harassment and maternity issues, leveraging its Japanese expertise in parental leave and whistleblowing systems.
Success hinges on three practical constraints: legal and regulatory alignment in each country, measured demand from KIF/GGI communities, and operational capacity to deliver cross-border clinical and legal services. Local licensing, differing labor laws, and data/privacy rules will shape scope of services and timelines. The announcement contains no revenue, cost, or pilot metrics, so near-term commercial impact remains unquantified.
Watch for concrete, monitorable milestones such as formal agreements with national sports associations, local clinic openings, pilot launch of the Free Labor Union Program, and the operationalization of the KIF Cambodia national chapter; expect these items to appear within the next 12–24 months for evidence of execution.
FUKUOKA, Japan, Oct. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- rYojbaba Co., Ltd. (Nasdaq: RYOJ) (“rYojbaba” or the “Company”), a Japanese labor consulting and health services company, announced a series of strategic corporate developments and global partnerships to expand its legal consulting and osteopathic clinic services on an international scale.
Earlier this month, Company CEO Ryoji Baba was officially invited by the Embassy of Japan in Vietnam and appointed as a Board Member of United Nations-affiliated non-governmental organization (“NGO”) Koyamada International Foundation (“KIF”) and its affiliated organization, Guardian Girls International (“GGI”).
KIF is an international NGO dedicated to promoting global peace, sustainable development, and improving quality of life through humanitarian, educational, and empowerment programs. Its initiatives tackle six major global challenges, including gender equality and the prevention of gender-based violence. GGI, affiliated with KIF, is a key partner in advancing UN SDG Goal 5, empowering women and girls through self-defense education programs rooted in traditional martial arts and sports.
Through CEO Baba’s affiliation with KIF and GGI, rYojbaba will play two critical roles in advancing the organizations’ mission and goals:
1. International Expansion of Medical and Rehabilitation Infrastructure
rYojbaba’s osteopathic clinics and licensed judo therapists will deliver medical care and recovery support to GGI-affiliated self-defense training participants and athletes suffering from injuries or chronic pain. By pursuing future collaborations with national sports associations, athletic federations, and educational institutions, the Company aims to create an integrated support model spanning training to recovery. This approach will not only broaden access to the Company’s osteopathic care but also expand clinic network and practice by reaching new clientele within KIF and GGI-affiliated communities.
2. Legal and Mental Health Support
By aligning with GGI’s mission, rYojbaba aims to establish and launch the world’s first Free Labor Union Program, providing free online legal advisory services to address critical issues such as sexual harassment, domestic violence, and maternity harassment. Leveraging its expertise in parental leave support, workplace equality, and whistleblowing system management developed in Japan, the Company aims to create localized support frameworks tailored to each country’s legal system, building a foundation to ultimately expand its labor and legal consulting services on a global scale.
“I am honored to be appointed as a board member of KIF and GGI, and the opportunity for rYojbaba to extend its services and contribute directly to advancing the mission of both organizations,” said rYojbaba CEO Ryoji Baba. “Our consulting practice and osteopathic clinic services align closely with the work of KIF and GGI, offering a unique opportunity to extend our impact on an international scale. The chance to serve the communities associated with KIF and GGI is deeply meaningful, as their missions resonate perfectly with our own values, truly a natural alignment. While serving Japan has been the cornerstone of our work, our services are designed to meet global needs, and our long-standing ambition has always been to expand our impact internationally.”
KIF Cambodia
Additionally, rYojbaba and KIF have partnered and entered into a National Chapter Affiliation Agreement with KIF Cambodia, a non-profit organization based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Under this agreement, KIF Cambodia is officially recognized as the exclusive National Chapter of KIF in the Kingdom of Cambodia. This recognition authorizes KIF Cambodia to advance KIF’s six core program areas (Youth, Girls & Women, Exchanges, Disaster & Emergency, Wildlife, and Space), supporting the foundation’s mission to address pressing global challenges. This partnership represents an extension of the Master Partnership Agreement between the Company and GGI that aims to expand the social impact initiatives centered on the protection and empowerment of women and girls across Cambodia.
Corporate Commitment to ESG and Long-Term Value Creation
CEO Baba commented: “Our company’s partnership, along with my personal affiliation with KIF and GGI, is just the beginning, as our shared mission aligns seamlessly with the goal of advancing sustainable and socially responsible initiatives globally. rYojbaba is committed not only to driving financial growth and shareholder returns but also enhancing long-term corporate value through social impact and adherence to legal and ethical standards. Collaborating with KIF and GGI represents a meaningful step forward in strengthening our brand credibility, international reputation, and ESG commitment. We look forward to pursuing future opportunities together in close alignment, creating lasting impact for the communities we serve.”
