I visited "Synergy Cafe GMO Yours ", a communication space (employee cafeteria) of "GMO Internet Group", which operates an internet business! This time it was just a lunchtime visit, and the table seats were almost full. It was crowded with a lot of staff!


lunch time! It's quite lively from 12:00 to 14:00!

At the entrance of Synergy Cafe, the origin of the ingredients used in today's menu is introduced on the board. Pork is from Spain ... Beef is from Australia ... Rockfish is from the United States ... Oh, onions are from Hokkaido!

GMO Internet Group with many young staff. Since many people live alone, they are worried that their physical condition will be neglected, and they have a nutritionally balanced menu such as vegetables and fruits to support their health. Every day, 3 main dishes, 2 side dishes, salad, soup, rice (bread and naan), dessert are prepared, and the calories of each item are also displayed!


The dishes will be served on a plate in a buffet style. Since the same dish is prepared in 2 lanes, it seems to proceed smoothly even when it is crowded. I'd like you to join the GMO Internet group because it's okay to just have lunch.

For lunch, in addition to the normal plate, an example of serving as an "anti-aging plate " is also on display. This "anti-aging plate" is supervised by Professor Hideyuki Negoro, who is researching cutting-edge medical care such as anti-aging at Harvard University and other university medical schools in five countries around the world, and is also a special advisor to GMO Internet! It keeps the necessary nutrients in a well-balanced manner and reduces calories to 70% compared to the normal plate. There was also a "To go box" for busy people! This helps!

Staff from more than 60 companies of the GMO Internet Group will visit this community space. There is something like "When I talked to him, he was the one who launched that service." It is also a big attraction to be able to make connections here!


"Oh, the person involved in that famous service ...!"

The latest devices such as smartphones, tablets and laptops are located in one corner of the community space. Wi-Fi is also available, so many staff members use it for work, meetings, and meetings with customers during times other than lunchtime.


Feel free to play with it!

This communication space is open 24 hours a day to accommodate late-night staff! Vending machines are in operation at night, and rice balls, sandwiches, Red Bull, etc. are offered free of charge. There is also a bar time every Friday night, and of course, the drinks and appetizers at that time are also free! Jealous! I'm too jealous ... GMO!


In addition, this community space "Synergy Cafe GMO Yours" is based on the concept of "a place where the world's best human resources can gather in order to provide the best service in the world", and while listening to the opinions of the staff, we will become "the best space in the world". It is evolving day by day.


I think it's more than enough meaningful space, but what kind of wonderful space will it evolve into in the future? I'm so worried that I want to live here ...
