Higuchi-san was the most highly networked member of our management team at Infoseek Japan and provided market and industry context. Higuchi-san was essential in building and maintaining many of the relationships. Higuchi-san is a balanced combination of vision and lots of practical industry experience.

We called Higuchi-san Mr. Notes. He represented Lotus as both the technical, marketing and press contact for Notes. We did promotions together, built most of the Tower Records commerce site on a weekend together with his team, and he and his team help me set up my site on the weekends. Higuchi-san and his "crew" made my interaction with Lotus a pleasure and a great learning experience.
