一般的にはどの市場でも大企業が参入すればブランド力があるのですぐにシェアを獲得できるが、小中規模の企業はなかなか新規参入は厳しいと思っている。例えばVA市場で小中規模の企業が新規参入してトップ10シェアを獲得するのは難しいと思う。
一方、EIA市場はまだ新規企業の参入余地があると思うか?
例えば、ある会社はそれほど大企業ではないものの数年前に参入してトップ10に近いポジションを獲得したという事例もあるが、現在でも大企業以外で参入余地はあるだろうか?

In general, I believe that small businesses have less chance to enter the new market although it would be much easier for major corporations to enter any market and gain the share because of their branding power. For example, it will be difficult for small businesses to enter the new market and acquire TOP 10 share in VA market.
On the other hand, the question is if there is a room for new entry in EIA market.
For example, there is a case that one company that relatively small in size, had entered in the market in a few years ago, and acquired the position that is closed to TOP share. However, is there still room for businesses other than major corporations to enter the market today?

In general, it is considered that entering new markets is very hard for smaller companies, though major companies can soon gain share in any market with their strong brand.
For instance, it might be difficult for smaller companies to reach the top 10 share of VA market if they newly entered the market.
On the other hand, in EIA market, do you think there is a room for new companies to enter?
There was a case example that a company, not a big one, got the position near top 10 in a few years after entry, but I wonder if there is still a room for such non big companies to enter.

Generally, in all market, big scale enterprise can have share soon when they enter the market. However, small to midium sclae enterprises think it is difficult. For example, it is difficult for small to midium sclae enterprises to get share of top ten when they entered in VA market first time.

On the other hand, is there a room in EIA market for newly-established company's entry?
For instance, there is a case that not so big enterprises entered some years ago and got a position almost same as top10. But is there a room still now for non-big enterprise?

Recently, more than half of IA products have 10-year surrender. I heard the reason is because of the criticism about the lengthy of the surrender. Do you have any comment on this?
