I know it was mentioned once in the Director's Commentary, but where he had it from is a good question. It's my guess it was just mentioned by someone, in some episode; would be quite typical the series to do that.

Towa is mentioned once at the beginning of episode 5. two computer users are discussing conspiracies, and the power cuts as soon as the Towa Organization is mentioned. We can assume that Towa's local base of operations is the looming dark tower with red electromagnetic beacons, which we occasionally see in the distance.

According to the novels it is called the "Ladder" and is located right near Paisley Park. In the novels, Towa's top level commands are issued by a mysterious force known only as "Orpheus", but exactly what this is has not been explained yet even in the novels as far as I know.

Im pretty sure that Snake Eye also mentions Towa in that same episode
