Background

About Eliass H.

As a half-Japanese, half-Moroccan entrepreneur born in Morocco, I always dreamt of coming to Japan to make a name for myself in the country and language that scared me the most. I arrived alone, broke, and unable to speak Japanese. Banks wouldn't even give me a debit card for online payments. For 2.5 years, I grinded as a salaryman in Isehara, enduring 4-hour train commutes starting at 5 AM, feeling like a zombie on the verge of giving up. That's when my wife saved me by gifting experiences that reignited my spark and made me feel truly alive. It taught me the profound value of cherishing those small, meaningful moments with the people we love. Out of my darkest times, Anatae was born, a marketplace for gifting unforgettable experiences that connect hearts and create lasting memories. Today, we boast nearly users and trusted partners. Our mission? To spark 10 million meaningful gifts by 2030. I'm thrilled every day to make it happen. Join us in turning ordinary moments into extraordinary bonds.
