Famed character designer and art director Akihiko Yoshida has joined CyDesignation as a member of their board of directors. CyDesignation is a subsidiary of Cygames, working on art design and content, mostly for the parent company. Cygames is best known for Rage of Bahamut, the popular f2p social card game for mobile.
Hideo Minaba is the president of CyDesignation. If I recall correctly, he actually started the company independently as Design Nation or something, and it was eventually bought by CyGames? Not sure, but it's Minaba's design studio.

Both the Dengeki article and CyGames' press release also states that a game which Yoshida is working on as Art Director will be announced soon.
