Operates Matching Platform for Manufacturers
Linkers operates a matching platform to aid manufacturers in solving problems. Manufacturers can utilize the company’s matching platform to find collaborators with products and technologies that best suit their product development, thereby increasing their probability of success.
The company's net sales are divided into three categories: search and matching services, research services and other. The search and matching service, which encompasses development and mass production, is the primary source of revenue, accounting for 62.9% of net sales in fiscal year ended July 2022. Net sales are volatile, however, depending on the presence or absence of mass production projects. The research service, which accounted for 32.7% of net sales, is growing steadily.
The company offers Linkers Research for the research process, Linkers Sourcing and Linkers Marketing for development and Linkers Trading for mass production.
Its mainstay service, Linkers Sourcing is a matching service that searches for and brings together small-and medium-sized companies with technology and know-how for large-sized companies coping with technological challenges. More than 400 large-sized companies place orders via Linkers Sourcing.
Linkers Marketing is a service that enables small- and medium-sized companies with technology and expertise to market their products to large-sized companies. The primary purpose of Linkers Trading is to facilitate searching for the most suitable suppliers and purchasers. Companies overseas are also candidates to serve as suppliers and purchasers.
In addition to the aforementioned services operated by the company itself, there are also Linkers for BANK and Linkers for Business, which are services providing platform systems to regional financial institutions and business firms.

概要（レポートから抜粋）
リンカーズ（以下、同社）は、ものづくり企業の課題解決のためのマッチングプラットフォームを運営している。
ものづくり企業の製品開発は一般的に、研究、開発、量産というプロセスを経るが、多くの場合、自社単独で完結することはなく、他社の技術の導入をはじめ、外部企業との協業が必要となる。同社は、ものづくりの中でも、見積りや要件定義を必要とする、秘匿性が高く、製品開発の鍵を握る中核的な製品や技術分野でのマッチングを実現している。
同社が提供するマッチングプラットフォームを使うことで、ものづくり企業は、自社の製品開発に適した製品や技術を持つ協業先を探し当て、製品開発の成功確率を上げることが可能になる。
同社はビジネスマッチング事業の単一セグメントだが、売上高は、探索･マッチングサービス、リサーチサービス、その他サービスの3つのサービスに分類されている。
開発、量産のプロセスをカバーする探索･マッチングサービスが収益の柱だが、量産案件の有無で収益の振れ幅が大きい。研究のプロセスをカバーするリサーチサービスの収益は順調に拡大している。
