RISNGPRO Holdings Co. Ltd. (株式会社ライジングプロ・ホールディングス, Kabushiki gaisha Raijingupuro Hōrudingusu), operating as Rising Production, is a Japanese talent agency. It largely works with musical talent, but has branched out in recent years to include actors and comedians. The company came into prominence after the widespread successes of musical acts Namie Amuro, MAX, Speed and Da Pump in the mid to late 1990s. Rising Production was founded by Tetsuo Taira (平 哲夫, Taira Tetsuo) in Minato, Tokyo in July 1985, with Japanese idol Yōko Oginome being the agency's first talent. Oginome's success led to Taira becoming a producer under the pseudonym "Jonny Taira" (ジョニー平, Jonī Taira). In the fall of 1986, 12-year-old Kaori Sakagami signed with Rising Production after being invited to an Oginome concert in Nagasaki Prefecture. In 1991, the agency signed up-and-coming talent Alisa Mizuki. More information...
