Description English
Our company was established with the aim of supporting medium-sized and small enterprises that aspire to "reform and growth," by members who have extensive practical experience in private equity investment, M&A, and finance. We primarily operate in the buyout and growth market, with a focus on the mid-to-small cap sector, and manage our activities independently.
We believe there are abundant investment opportunities in the buyout and growth investment sector for mid-to-small cap markets, particularly with increasing transactions related to business succession challenges due to a lack of successors, as well as carve-out transactions involving subsidiaries or business divisions of corporations driven by the need for business reorganization.
Beyond just providing risk capital, we fully leverage our networks, skills, know-how, experience, and insights, committing ourselves wholeheartedly to our portfolio companies without adopting a top-down approach, but rather working side-by-side with them. By collaborating with regional financial institutions, we aim to identify region-specific opportunities, becoming the best owners for companies that pursue "reform and growth," while also contributing to regional revitalization, economic and social development, and invigorating businesses in Japan.
