About Spectee

March 11th, 2011. Great East Japan earthquake.

Ken Murakami, the founder of Spectee Inc., hastened to the disaster area as a volunteer and witnessed the reality that SNS worked as an effective communication tool among victims while traditional mass media could not necessarily deliver accurate information quickly.

At this moment, the mission was inscribed in Spectee’s DNA to find, obtain and deliver necessary information to those who needs it in the ocean of explosively increasing information.
