D.works

What D.works does

D.works (株式会社ディワークス) is a Tokyo-based event management firm founded in November 1982 and headquartered in Taito-ku, Yanagibashi. The company delivers end-to-end event production for Japanese government agencies, academic and research institutions, and corporate clients, covering symposiums, workshops, seminars, conferences, committee meetings, exhibitions, and ceremonies. Its core service portfolio spans event planning and design, on-site setup and operations, post-event reporting, hybrid streaming, AV production, and event staffing.

Its technology surface is built around three components: (1) a web-based registration and participant management system with QR code and badge generation, (2) hybrid event delivery integrated with YouTube, Zoom, Webex, and Microsoft Teams, and (3) in-house professional AV equipment operations. The firm complements its direct capability with regional partner companies to support on-site delivery outside Tokyo, effectively extending its service geography without proportionate fixed-cost expansion.

D.works operates a professional services model with custom project-based pricing, free estimates, and optional multi-year contracts. The firm holds the Japan Privacy Mark (P-Mark) certification and maintains formal personal information protection, information security, and cookie policies, which function as gating credentials for handling attendee data on behalf of government and academic clients. The firm is privately held, with stated capital of JPY 30,000,000 and 1-10 employees.
