Message – We always look forward to working together with founders as partners and friends. Founders and Venture Capitalists are 2 sides to the same coin, like strong founders, we always strive to be “strong hands” during down and up times. We seek to uncover opportunities in the market faster than anyone, so we can see from the same perspective as founders. We also want to help founders connect the dot as we leverage on Incubate Fund’s position on the ground in Japan and Asia.

Message – India is a country that is rapidly developing, on the other hand, it also still faces a lot of challenges. We want to create start-ups together with the talented local entrepreneurs that will brilliantly solve such problems. I cherish both my point of view as a person born and raised in Japan, a developed country with new problems, and also the local point of view that I obtained in India, I wish to continue to contribute to the development of the startup ecosystem of India and therefore Asia as a whole.

Message – In our position as investors, rather than supervise and manage entrepreneurs, we stand firm in our support of companies we invested in, try to bring success to the business together with the entrepreneurs and be a flat partner to the entrepreneurs as much as possible. The industry of venture capitals is a new and immature industry, although its value expected from society is great. Incubate Fund itself continues to explore the shape of a stronger and new venture capital as an entrepreneur in Japan and Asia.
