ABOUT
About Us
We aim to create a society where everyone can make better choices
and embrace challenges by overcoming the barriers
in the medical, nursing, and healthcare fields.
Who We Are
ICIKA is a medical solution partner addressing challenges
in the medical, nursing, and healthcare sectors
through medical consulting, clinic closure support, global expansion,
and pharmaceutical & cosmetics development (OEM).
Standing as a "hub" between medicine, nursing, welfare, local communities,
and experts in various fields, we closely support each complex challenge
and option, providing optimal assistance and execution capabilities
to everyone involved in healthcare.
MISSION
Breaking through the "conventions and contradictions"
of the healthcare business to create a foundation
where everyone can confidently pursue their challenges.
"It takes time because it's the healthcare industry."
"We can't do it because there's no precedent."
ICIKA confronts such industry norms and excuses
with unparalleled speed of execution, building a solid foundation
to continuously support those who take on challenges.
VISION
Towards a society where no one has to give up their aspirations
due to health anxieties or environmental barriers.
Ensuring that everyone has appropriate access to necessary medical care, nursing, and healthcare,
regardless of nationality, language, regulatory environment, or economic status.
ICIKA aims to be a bridge that removes the barriers between people, healthcare, and the world,
connecting them to a better future.
THREE CORE MINDSETS
Our Three Core Mindsets
In addressing challenges
within the medical, nursing,
and healthcare fields,
ICIKA cherishes the following three core mindsets (Values).
Integrity
Challenge
Individuality
- Integrity
- Recognizing our responsibility in healthcare and nursing,
we prioritize strict governance,
transparency, and trusting relationships above all.
We thoroughly protect the confidentiality of entrusted information,
approach every task with sincerity,
and strive to provide a service
that allows clients to entrust everything to us
with peace of mind. - Challenge
- Unbound by past precedents, industry stereotypes,
or reasons why things "can't be done,"
we dedicate ourselves to solving essential problems.
In the rapidly changing regulatory and social landscape
of the healthcare sector,
we always move at top speed,
continuing to provide new options for our clients. - Individuality
- We combine diverse expertise,
including medical professionals, multilingual interpreters,
specialists in pharmaceutical regulations
and administrative procedures,
and experts in IT and AI utilization.
By integrating their multicultural experiences and cutting-edge knowledge,
we build a unique support system
that truly meets the needs of the frontline.
TOP MESSAGE
Message from the CEO
We want to support the foundation of all challengers
with the power of medicine, nursing, and healthcare.
"It takes time because it's the healthcare industry." "Procedures are opaque and there's no precedent, so we can't proceed." Are these words we've heard in the medical, nursing, and healthcare worlds truly unchangeable norms?
We don't think so. We are determined to change the status quo where passionate people give up on new challenges or cannot focus on their original medical or nursing duties due to "contradictions" disguised as industry norms or invisible "barriers" such as nationality, language, and regulations. ICIKA was founded upon this strong desire.
All of our services—from "Clinic Closure Support," which handles everything from administrative procedures to demolition and medical equipment appraisal through a single point of contact, to "Global Expansion Support," which focuses on reliable hands-on assistance on the ground—were created to break through the "inconvenient walls" right in front of our clients with unparalleled speed of execution.
Creating a society where everyone can challenge themselves towards the future in their own way, unhindered by health anxieties or environmental barriers. That is the vision we aim for. As a unique medical solution partner combining expertise and multicultural individuality, ICIKA will continue to support the milestones and new steps in your lives with sincerity and agility.
