ProjectGO MARINE
PROJECT
OKINAWA

Go Marine Project Okinawa is a future-oriented marine experience concept currently under development by UNIQON Inc. Its foundation is to protect Okinawa’s ocean and grow together with the local environment and community, combining innovative marine mobility with safety, comfort, premium hospitality, and respect for nature.

Project Mission

Protect the ocean. Create safe, elegant experiences. Grow together with Okinawa.

Jet Car is positioned as the first step. It is being evaluated not as an extreme or high-speed attraction, but as a safe, elegant and comfortable marine lifestyle experience that respects Okinawa’s ocean, local regulations, surrounding users and communities. From this starting point, UNIQON will explore future opportunities in marine experiences, Japan market development, and international partnerships.

This website describes business concepts, planned development, and potential partnership opportunities. It does not state that services are currently offered, that manufacturer agreements have been executed, or that UNIQON is an official distributor.

CHAIRMAN & PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

From Okinawa, Creating New Experiences for the World.

For more than five decades, I have been involved in international business across Japan, China, and other parts of Asia.

Through those years, I learned one important lesson: a successful business is not simply about selling products. It should be about creating value that people can remember.

This is the idea behind Go Marine Project Okinawa.

Okinawa has one of the most beautiful marine environments in Asia. I believe there is an opportunity to combine this extraordinary setting with innovative marine mobility, Japanese standards of safety and quality, and the spirit of Okinawan hospitality.

Jet Car is only the first step.

Our long-term vision is to create extraordinary marine experiences that people will remember for a lifetime, while respecting Okinawa’s ocean, environment, and local community.

We are still at the beginning of this journey.

Through partnerships with manufacturers, hotels, resorts, and people who share our vision, I hope we can create something truly unique here in Okinawa.

From Okinawa to the World.
