His multifaceted expertise is backed by an M.D., a Ph.D. in Medical Science, a Master of Science (SM) from Harvard University, an MBA from the University of Cambridge, and a Master of Public Administration (MPA) from Columbia University.
Dr. TAKASAKI Yohsuke began his career as a physician in internal medicine and community healthcare after graduating from Okayama University Medical School. He then transitioned to public service, joining the MHLW, where he held a series of key directorial positions. His leadership roles included Director for the Promotion of Medical Information Technology, Director for the International Expansion of Medical Services, Director for Emergency and Perinatal Care, and Director for Disaster Medical Response.

Internationally, he served as the Chief for a JICA joint project on global health between Japan and Thailand and interned at the World Health Organization (WHO).
After an impactful career in government, he transitioned to the private sector. He spearheaded new healthcare business development and investment strategies for a major Japanese IT corporation and gained hands-on experience at a UK-based venture capital firm. As a serial entrepreneur, he has since founded multiple companies dedicated to advancing healthcare through Medical DX (Digital Transformation), AI, and the development of digital medical devices.
