LAS VEGAS, April 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Streamline Media Group (Streamline), a video games and digital asset developer and services company, announces its expansion into Japan. Former Third Party Relations VP of Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) Japan Asia, Kenji Kajiwara, is now the General Manager, Head of Japan for Streamline’s new office.
Kenji Kajiwara is a well-known global business leader in the video games industry with more than 20 years experience managing international human relations, software sales, and business expansions for Japan and Asia markets. During his tenure at SIE, Kenji Kajiwara initiated and contributed to many expansion and development initiatives, including handling numerous global partnerships with Japan Asia base partners like Sony’s China Hero Project and the launch of the PlayStation 4 in China.
