Powerful partners

for growth

We are a Japan-based venture capital fund with a mission to empower visionary gamechangers and unlock transformative growth.

Our goal is to connect startups with the right people, insights, and opportunities to help them scale beyond expectations. Backed by a diverse investment team and deep global networks, we identify and support high-potential ventures both in Japan and internationally.


We go beyond capital. By applying our proprietary ESG framework, we work closely with our portfolio companies to drive long-term, sustainable growth. Our commitment to diversity also extends to fostering a more inclusive and resilient startup ecosystem.


As bridge-builders and ecosystem shapers, we leverage decades of experience across public and private sectors. Through active engagement in thought leadership and policy dialogue, we are helping to define the next chapter of Japan’s innovation economy - empowering founders to realize bold, impactful visions.
