Contributing
to market activation
through support for SDGs

The startups we fund and support are characterized by the following features:
- Entrepreneurs and management teams that engage in management and business with serious commitment
- Companies that have grown to reach a certain business scale and provide products and services that have the full support of society and customers
- Companies providing new services that have the potential to become part of essential social infrastructure in the future
Rather than pursuing small IPOs and associated investment returns, our aim is to contribute to the SDGs and market activation by fostering entrepreneurs and socially significant businesses that will lead Japan in the future.
