Throughout the event, we were delighted to welcome a large number of visitors to our booth.We had the opportunity to exchange ideas and discuss a wide range of topics, including:

“We want to make better use of our LINE Official Account.”
“We are facing challenges in creating meaningful customer touchpoints.”
“We are exploring new initiatives that leverage AI.”

One of the highlights that generated particularly strong interest was our new LINE Mini App creation tool, which is currently under development. At the booth, attendees were able to experience building a LINE Mini App firsthand.

We received feedback such as:

“I’m amazed that a LINE Mini App can be built this easily and so quickly.”
“I can create and edit it myself!”
“The barrier to adoption is much lower than I expected.”

The event also reinforced for us just how many companies are interested in creating new customer experiences through LINE.

101 Attendees Joined Our Session

On the first day of the event, our CSO and Board Director, Masashi Nagai, delivered a session titled “How AI and Vibe Coding Are Transforming LINE Mini App Development.”

The session attracted 101 attendees and explored the potential of AI-powered LINE Mini App development, as well as strategies for building stronger customer connections through LINE.

Following the presentation, we received numerous questions and inquiries from attendees. It was a valuable opportunity to see firsthand the strong interest in the areas Evolany is actively developing and innovating.

Comments from Evolany Team Members

CSO・Nagai

With AnyApps, our goal is to make the potential of LINE Mini Apps accessible to all businesses—not just large enterprises—and establish them as a widely adopted platform across Japan.
Our journey to create a world where companies can build customer experiences on LINE more quickly and with greater flexibility is only just beginning. That is exactly what makes this such an exciting time.
For those who want to play a key role in building a new business from the ground up and help shape and expand the market with their own hands, we believe this is an incredibly rewarding environment to be part of.

Head of Marketing, Naito

For exhibitions such as Hello Friends!, the Marketing Team takes the lead in planning and preparation.
With this event, we were able not only to build excitement among customers and partners through our booth, but also to bring that enthusiasm back to the company and boost the motivation of our team members. In that sense, it felt like a valuable marketing initiative that created impact both externally and internally.
Evolany is a company where, if you take the initiative, you are given the opportunity to challenge yourself in many different ways. Just as importantly, there is a culture where your efforts are recognized, and people are genuinely willing to support you along the way.
We believe that this supportive environment is what allows everyone to perform at their best with confidence.

Head of Sales, Sato

As we continue to accelerate customer experiences through AnyApps, I believe we were able to clearly demonstrate just how easily LINE Mini Apps can be created using our platform. As a result, we received a great deal of positive feedback from a wide range of companies and attendees.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the opportunities that come with taking on new challenges in this emerging space. What excites me most is being part of an environment where each individual can contribute, grow, and succeed while working toward a shared goal.
