GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM: Navigating the Competitive Ocean
The Journey of RUNSYSTEM’s Founding
GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM traces its roots back to 2005, when two Vietnamese students in Japan - Ngo Van Tau and Nguyen Tan Minh, decided to establish a software company named RUNSYSTEM, meaning “to run the system.” Starting with only a few student employees and initial projects from Japanese clients, the company quickly built a strong reputation under the motto “Global Software Quality.” Despite early challenges and even a loss during the 2009 global financial crisis, RUNSYSTEM persevered, expanding steadily and opening its Tokyo branch in 2007.
Becoming Part of GMO Internet Group
In 2011, RUNSYSTEM officially became a member of GMO Internet Group, one of Japan’s leading technology conglomerates, and rebranded as GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM. This partnership marked a new phase of rapid growth - revenue increased sixfold within five years, and the workforce grew fourfold. Today, the company boasts over 900 employees, with offices in Hanoi, Hue, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City, and Tokyo. It has consistently been recognized by VINASA as one of the Top 10 Leading Software Export and IT Service Enterprises in Vietnam.
Innovating “Make in Vietnam” Products for Global Reach
Moving beyond outsourcing, GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM invested in R&D to develop innovative “Make in Vietnam” solutions such as SmartOCR, SmartRPA, SmartKYC, WowCRM, ERP, and Mira AI. Among these, SmartOCR and SmartRPA have been highly rated in Japan for their superior performance. The company also pioneers in blockchain, NFT, and digital exchange platforms, serving clients across Japan, Thailand, Singapore, and emerging markets. With competitive pricing, agile development, and a strong Kaizen culture, GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM continues to seize opportunities in the ever-evolving global tech landscape.
Guided by the Philosophy “Work for Your Smile”
At the heart of GMO-Z.com RUNSYSTEM lies the philosophy “Work for your smile” - representing the company’s dedication to the happiness of its employees, partners, and clients.
