No man is an island and no organisation is either. Network – To make connections and build alliances. We wish to extend and push past the limits of how creativity is commonly expressed by constantly experimenting with new and unique ideas, concepts, and media.

There is nothing more rewarding to us than putting smiles on the faces of our consumers, clients, distributors, retailers, partners, staff, and all we come into contact with.Īdvance – To advance the frontiers of creative expression. Therefore, we have set a number goals, each represented by the individual letters of the word ‘ CHANGE’, to steer us towards that which we wish to accomplish.Ĭreative – To create original content that is inspiring and infotaining.Ĭreating original content that not only encourages and uplifts people but informs and entertains them is at the heart of what we do and is a task we take very seriously. We envision ourselves as a company that effects positive change not only in ourselves but also in the lives of the people we touch. We are KADOKAWA GEMPAK STARZ.Ĭontinual change is key to achieving our mission. With KADOKAWA’s 70-plus years of experience and know-how fuelling our rise, we are positioned to grow into a broad-based media company boasting a diverse multiplatform portfolio, including animation, games, and other digital and multimedia content in addition to our comics, novels, and magazines.Īt the very heart, we are a creative company. Now, we are in the midst of advancing ourselves – from being Malaysia’s biggest publisher of comics and graphic novels to becoming one of the world’s most prolific creators of creative content. In November 2015, we joined forces with KADOKAWA CORPORATION, Japan’s leading entertainment content provider and renamed ourselves KADOKAWA GEMPAK STARZ. By 2013, our output was over 250 publications of various genres from acclaimed local, regional, and international artists. Sustained success consequently saw the establishment of GEMPAK STARZ, our graphic novel publishing arm in 2001. We began back in 1994 as ART SQUARE GROUP, an advertising agency servicing various blue chip companies before subsequently diversifying into publishing.
