Through my previous job, I've seen various businesses and companies expand globally. There were various methods, from those at the field level, such as building operational excellence, to those through capital policies such as M&A. However, in every successful case, there was a strong will on the part of entrepreneurs and management teams to lead new businesses, products, services, and technologies to the next stage.
I think startups are mixed martial arts of product/service (technology), operation (people), and capital/capital policy (investors like us).
Together with entrepreneurs and business owners with strong will and dreams, I would like to overcome difficult situations and create Japan's first world-standard product/service.
