The name "Creative Bubbles" was chosen from an in-house competition, and was inspired by the desire for the space to be a place of creation where people can continue to pursue their dreams and ambitions. NAMCO BANDAI Studios has taken the initiative in reforming its work style, transitioning to telecommuting in April 2020, followed by the establishment of a policy of working from home in June 2021. Going forward, the company will continue to promote a hybrid work style that leverages the advantages of both telecommuting and coming to work.
