TWOSTONE&Sons has established Agentic, a new company, and launched an AX business based on management metrics. It is building a support structure to link the use of AI to business outcomes and support companies’ sustainable growth. Attention is focused on future developments, including the appointment of a young CEO and trends in the industry.
On 17 September 2026, TWOSTONE&Sons established Agentic, a new group company, and launched its AX business. AX refers to corporate transformation through AI. The company is establishing a structure that provides consistent support from design and implementation through adoption, working backward from management metrics.
Ikeda Kenji (池田賢司) changed to representative director and CEO.
Market trends suggest that the AI market in 2026 is moving from the adoption phase into a phase in which companies are seeking concrete business outcomes. According to a Boston Consulting Group survey, many CEOs expect quantifiable results from AI agents by the end of 2026, while a report forecasts that AI investment will amount to approximately 1.7% of revenue.
Agentic’s distinguishing feature is that it designs AX and BX as an integrated offering starting from management metrics such as revenue and profit. It avoids dependence on specific AI products and proposes optimal solutions tailored to existing systems and business challenges. Its support covers the full process, from strategy development and business redesign through the development and implementation of AI agents and their adoption across the organization.
Looking ahead, Agentic plans to expand into the physical AI field and aims to strengthen the competitiveness of Japanese companies. It seeks to create high-growth companies by connecting operational transformation with digital technologies and providing hands-on support to embed those changes in the workplace.
