Source-derived summary

Tatsue Ishikawa (石川達絵) is a Japanese businesswoman and racehorse owner.

She is the CEO of Digimerce, a company that develops applications of smartphones and video game devices.

Biography

Born in Tokyo in 1962, she founded Digimerce in 2005 after branching out of Barows.

As a racehorse owner

In 2003, Ishikawa became a racehorse owner in Ohi Racecourse, before becoming a racehorse owner in the JRA in 2009.

In 2017, Ishikawa had her first graded race and Grade I win when Kiseki won the Kikuka-shō.

She does not use any particular eponyms, and her horses are often simply named. However, for what would become one of her most famous horse, Kiseki, she initially applied for various names but was rejected, before applying for "Kiseki" on a whim and being approved.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as japanese businessperson and racehorse owner. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q117460227. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1962, 2005, 2003 and 2009.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
